Since this company is based in FL, do you know if both places are popular down there?
The closest Frank Theatres CineBowl & Grille locations to me are in Bonita Springs (Fort Myers area) and Venice (Sarasota area) which are not that close, so I am not sure. Most other locations are in Broward County and Palm Beach County in south Florida.
Revolutions is fun and very popular, there is one here in Orlando and is always packed. I suspect that these establishments are locating in Syracuse because of the number of people who travel to Florida and are familiar with them, plus the increasing foot traffic that Destiny offers.

Most other locations are in Broward County and Palm Beach County in south Florida. Revolutions is fun and very popular, there is one in Orlando and West Palm Beach in south Florida. I am getting the impression that these establishments are locating in Syracuse because of the number of people who travel to Florida and are familiar with them, plus the increasing foot traffic that Destiny offers.
Good point about the people that travel back and forth between here and FL. Given Destiny's popularity with Canadians, maybe word will travel over there as well. I looked at the website and noticed that there are only a few other Revolutions locations and a handful of Franks Theatres along the East Coast. So, it will be interesting to see how both locations will do up here.
That sounds like good news for a city that has been maligned with the loss of manufacturing jobs over the past few decades. Hopefully, it will be sooner rather than later.

Good point on Canadians, esp. those that travel to the west coast of Florida. It will be interesting to see how Allegiant Air (and jetblue) impacts these new venues to Syracuse considering the number of travelers to Florida. I am looking forward to the Township 5 update this Sunday.
I hope the new owner of Shoppingtown can turn things around there. It has so much potential and if they can get the right businesses there, it could become vibrant again.
Without the new owner coming forward, there's no reason to stay. All that's known is that the property was auctioned off. Never a good sign. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the place cleared out and became a ghost town unfortunately. Malls in general are dying all over the country.
