One of the many neighborhood theatres in the Bronx. This theatre opened as the Miracle Theatre and later changed it's name to the Boro Theatre. This theatre closed around 1947.

Amazingly, this tiny building is still standing, between vacant lots in the South Bronx. To see some recent pics, as well as pics of several other old theatre buildings in the neighborhood, click here:

The theatre, as the Miracle, was open and showing films by at least 1921.
