Anyone have any pictures from inside the theaters? Preferably the main theater? I have a lot of great memories of going to this theater in the late 70’s through the 80’s and would love to see the inside one more time…

Saw The Outsiders here when I was 9. I was real young, but I remember walking in and the screen seeming HUGE!

Saw a lot of the films of my youth here in the late 70s, early 80s. Mostly shlock, but the best kind. I remember seeing The Devil & Max Devlin, Arthur (definitely NOT shlock), Sleepaway Camp, Mortuary, Cannonball Run (I remember running from this to For Your Eyes Only at the 86th St. East right after), 10 to Midnight, Terror in the Aisles, LIfeforce, Creepshow 2, and many, many others. Does this theater still have that sticky floors, stale popcorn, tacky carpets 70s vibe I remember so well?

Please Please Please, if anyone has pictures of the interior or exterior of this theater in the 70s and/or 80s, could you post them or email them to me at Or if you know where I might be able to find such photos, I’d be very grateful.
