They have completed some additional major renovations 2007-2010, including recreating original ceiling morals, replastering and repainting the walls and decorative featuures, new carpeting, refurbished seats, lobby renovations.
It’s not a great theater, but it’s very nice and hasn’t been overrestored, so you still feel like you’re in an old theater. The current projection/sound system is first rate; it’s a pleasure to see movies there.
Thanks for the photo, Lost Memory. I love it!
This is a 2009 photo.
Looks like a beautiful theatre. Glad it was saved.
Here is the Paramount in 1986.
Great mention of the theatre in Sunday’s New York Times Westchester Section, with nice picture. http://tinyurl.com/7hb33f

Here is a closeup view of the Paramount marquee.
Finally the restrooms are getting a makeover. Plus, the outgoing Governor (former Peekskill Mayor) just put a heafty sum into the state budget for capital improvements.
Take a look at some photos from the theater.

Is this a decadent movie palace?
This Paramount is virtually identical to the Paramount across the Hudson River in Middletown, NY. They were built simultaneously and opened within 15 days of each other in June, 1930.
The paramount was closed December 15th, 2003 through February 15th, 2004 to perform restoration on the theatre.
Please forward a schedule of upcoming events as well as ticket prices. Would like to give as a gift. Please advise.
