From 1949 a photo postcard view of the (New) Harbor Theatre during it’s gala opening in Stone Harbor N.J.
I am currently working at this establishment. It has been totally redone inside, but still pays direct homage to it’s history. The largest screen in the back is close to it’s original position and size, over the stage which is still there, there are original architectural features throughout the building, but it has the modern amenities (plus a few extra)that modern moviegoers have come to expect. Here is a link to the new website.
