Renovations are under way to return the old movie house to its roots.
It's reel-y happening. Movies will play again at Pikes Theatre after almost three decades without its silver screen. The Baltimore Jewish Times reports plans are under way to turn the theater—now the Pikes Diner—back to its former glory. The paper reports the new theater will have two 25-by-13 foot screens, and each screening room will seat 80. The theater would be open seven days a week and show first-run films. Pikes told the Times that the new theater could open as soon as July. “It’s like a godsend because, the fact is, I really can’t think of anything else to create activity down here,” owner Wil Reich told the paper. “I can’t think of anything that would benefit the 900- and 1000-blocks of Reisterstown Road more than this concept.” …

An auction was held last week, and another Quarry Lake business owner bought the popular breakfast and lunch restaurant.
UPDATE (3 p.m.)—Quarry Bagel & Cafe, a breakfast and lunch restaurant at The Shops at Quarry Lake, has been sold. "It sold to another food tenant in Quarry Lake," said Scott Frank, auction specialist for commercial and residential properties. He represents Alex Copper Chattel Auctions.

And it's likely that the new owner will keep the restaurant open for dinner. An auction of the business "in its entirety" was held Friday, according to the auction announcement. …
