kencmcintyre commented about Crotona Theatre on Feb 4, 2010 at 5:15 am

I agree. I’m wondering what the Am Classic theater is, if not the Crotona. Someone will recognize it.

This was an Alliance Theaters house in 1947.

The Jefferson was across the street from the Embassy, more or less. The even side of the block is now taken by a Hilton hotel.

In 1958 the owner/operator was Alex Kling. His relationship to Harvey is unknown.

I think the American Classic guy mislabeled the April 2009 photo. I looked at Ken’s photos from 2005 and the one on 6/30/08, and the buiding is dissimilar to the one in the last photo. If the last one is not the Crotona, I would be curious to know which theater it actually is.
