I really don’t believe there is any connection between the
Russian communities in Rego Park and Brighton Beach. It's
possible, but I don’t think there is any connection.
The latest update on the status of the Trylon Theater is that it is
currently being renovated and will be turned into an Educational
Center for the Russian Jewish community in Rego Park.This rebuilding
is expected to be completed by the end of 2004. The site will cater to the learning needs of children, teenagers and also senior
citizens in the neighborhood. I first reported this in a page-one story in the Forest Hills Ledger on May 6.

I’m doing an article on the ghost-like, neglected Trylon Theater.
I’m looking for quotes about this art-deco masterpiece to get
any information I can about it, i.e. what was its seating capacity,
are there any plans for its future, any people I can contact
about this theater, etc. Also interested in getting some facts about the defunct Elmwood Theater.

The Trylon Theater should definitely be preserved as a landmark
building. It should be restored to its former self as one of the
last Art Deco theaters in New York City. It had a 60-year run and
it should be taken over by some entrepreneur and made into a
multi-plex so that it can compete with the other movie houses
in the Forest Hills area. The Trylon was the only theater in Rego
Park and the last of the single screen theaters anywhere!!!

Are there any future plans for the Trylon Theatre that sits
on Queens Blvd. and 66th Ave. looking so forlonly with its
empty marquee and graffitti all over the front of this once
great Art deco site. Can we ever bring it back or do something
worthwhile with this land mark property?????

on Queens Blvd. and 66th Ave.?? The marquee stands out on the busy
thoroughfare devoid of any signs and the exterior of the theatre
is marked with graffitti.It is such a sorry sight.
