My Father-in-law William E. Budge rebuilt this theater in 1948 or so after he came back from the Pacific. and my Mother-in-law grew up in Bangor and was a Henderson. Sad to see the decay of what was a center of entertainment for the town.
The Hub Teen Center has an address of 14 Broadway.
A Page theater organ was installed in the Strand Theater in 1928.
I went to this theater while visiting family in this area. Two of the movies I saw here were A Hard Day’s Night and a reissue of Peter Pan. The only thing I remember was that there wasn’t a manned snack bar only vending machines.
I know at one time Bangor had another theater, the Music Hall, since the marquee was still up in the 60’s. But it was never open during any of my visits.
Here is a short video clip from You Tube showing the Hub Teen Center, housed in the former Strand Theatre.
