Probably the case. I think I only saw on other Loew’s in the entire ad. I wonder how many of these theatres in the ad are on Cinema Treasures?

hdtv267 – I was once told the main photos rotate, but I don’t think so. It has to do with the order in which they are uploaded. There is no way to designate a specific photos.

lou52_1 Once upon a time I was told that the cover photos rotate. If it’s not happening now there is now way to earmark a specific photo for the cover.

That ad cannot be correct, Comfortably Cool. Loew’s did not have a presence on eastern Long Island until the 1960’s.

And also the location was Lake Grove not Smithtown. The Zip Code, however, is correct.

When Century first opened this theater it was simply the “Mall”. Only took on the full moniker of “Smith Haven Mall” later when malls started to pop up all over Long Island.

Although still known at the CM Performance Arts Center the facade of the building shows the Noel S. Ruiz identity. Also under the CM banner is the Onyx Theatre which I believe is just the name of a performing group. Uploaded a picture of the new exterior.

rivest see my much earlier comment that the original opening in conjunction with the Rockville Centre and Commack Twins was delayed for lavish finishing touches. At the time there wasn’t even a roof on the structure.
