Hudson Street Cinemas was a small, two screen theater located on the corner of Hudson Street and 1st Street in Hoboken. It was located inside the Marine View Plaza.
The theater had a tiny lobby that was possibly less than 15 feet from the doors to the candy counter. The Hudson Street Cinemas has since closed and the space is now occupied by a branch of HSBC.

Here is a 2002 photo.
A new theater will open next week bringing moviegoing back to Hoboken.
The Hoboken Twin located on Hudson Street was owned by my family Orjelick-Theaters. At its peak my grandfather owned 15 movie theatres. Many closed prior to when I was born in 1976. They were small family theaters that usually had 1-2 screens. Many of theaters included spanish films at one time. In an article I found about the Orjelick-Theatres dated June 11, 1987 it stated, “One by one, those theatres went under unable to survive the advent of the suburban multi-screen franchise cinema…By the 1980’s the Orjelick-Theatres had dwindled down to three properties to include the Art Theatre in the Bronx, the New Delancy in Manhattan and the Hoboken Twin in NJ.” The only other theater I remember that my family had owned was called the Coliseum Theater and was located in NY (52nd St & 4th Ave). Best :)
Thanks for the new pic lost memory. I have many happy memories of the old theater when my grandpa owned it but it still looks so similar in your 2002 pic :)
My actor cousin Bob Greene, born in Hoboken, played a cop in the 1995 movie “Copycat”, starring Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter. A lot of our family members got together to see his movie at the Hoboken Twin on its first night. It was the closest I ever got to attending an opening night premiere.
