The iconic Sunnyside Center Cinemas sign was damaged this morning and is likely to be demolished.

The building manager Michael Christopher said that a truck hit the sign while it was traveling along Queens Blvd. Another man said later today that a truck backed into the sign.

However, there was no sign of a truck on the scene.

Workers from the Department of Buildings were on their way to the theater to determine whether the sign should be destroyed.

A firefighter who evaluated the condition of the sign said it was rotten inside and would most likely have to come down.
