Six degrees of…
In the 8/11/07 ad, you will find the Alto, the York in Highland Park, and also the Church of the Open Door, the rooftop sign of which has moved over to the UA on Broadway. So it’s a trifecta.

“Available for corperate events”. I bet the corperations just flock to their door when they see that sign.

kencmcintyre commented about Mason Theatre on May 9, 2008 at 5:06 pm

This is a 1939 photo. The building at approximately 107 S. Broadway looks like a theater, but it could be a number of things. It would have been a few doors north of the Mason.

Looks good to me. Thanks.

It didn’t work for me. Can you post it again?

kencmcintyre commented about Warren Theatre on May 9, 2008 at 9:54 am

Thanks. I saw the Traymore implode when I was in sixth grade. That’s the large hotel seen in the distance.

OK, thanks.

kencmcintyre commented about Tower Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 11:30 pm

This had been changed to closed, but now it’s back to closed/demolished. Must be a gremlin in the system.

kencmcintyre commented about Roxy Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 11:25 pm

I vaguely recall the amusement park. I think there were a couple of childrens' rides and some skeeball games.

kencmcintyre commented about Million Dollar Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 11:19 pm

A mariachi show is scheduled for Sunday May 11, per the marquee.

kencmcintyre commented about Warren Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 11:10 pm

Warren, can you post the 1949 photo again?

kencmcintyre commented about Beach Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 10:57 pm

Regarding the popcorn, there wasn’t any. There was a ratty looking display with some candy bars, but I don’t know who were supposed to pay if you actually wanted one.

kencmcintyre commented about Strand Theatre on May 8, 2008 at 10:53 pm

I wonder what the actual demolition date was? It was still around in the late 70s when I was in high school.

kencmcintyre commented about AMC Philadelphia Mills 14 on May 8, 2008 at 8:49 pm

Any idea where the Plaza Theater was in NE Philadelphia? I can’t find it on CT, but I think I’m looking under the wrong name. Any help would be great.
