  • <p>The Strand Theater was located on Manor Street in the “Cabbage Hill” neighborhood of Lancaster PA.  Saturday matinees offered a double feature for 25 cents.  Needless to say, the place was packed with kids each Saturday afternoon.  The Strand was an iconic part of the history of Cabbage Hill.  Sometime in the 1970s, to quote a song from the same era, “They paved Paradise and put up a parking lot.”  RoseanneD</p>
