Hello,

My name is Hector Torres, I’m a 1977 Eastside High School Graduate who was born in New York and raised in Paterson, and I too grew up going to the Fabian Theatre. Although I departed the city of Paterson over 25 years ago, I still visit family and friends periodically and would love to see that historical landmark preserved and refurbished. The city of Paterson is an essential part of our nation’s history (especially the east coast) and it should be preserved, regardless of how bad the neigorhood is.

Throughout my successful the completion my 21 year naval career and college years, I’ve had the unfortunate opportunity of observe the unfolding of Paterson’s deteriatiation, block by block over the years. Law biding citizens that understand the importance of historical preservation for the sake of our nation, should take every possible action to preserve the Fabian Theatre and other landmarks in Paterson, NJ of historical interest.

No, I am not related to Joey Torres but I do know him. But we did lived in the same neighborhood and went to school together. As a matter of fact, my sister has been the Mayor’s Executive Secretary for over 25 years. So if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. I can’t make any guarentees by I will give it my best shot.
