When Montana Avenue was five gas stations and a Piece O' Pizza in the late ‘70s/early '80s, the Aero was a very second-run theatre with rock bottom prices. I grew up a few blocks away, and I’ve seen countless movies there. Now that the people of the neighborhood have changed, it is a different place (the prices are slightly lower than the rest of the screens in LA, but not by much, and the movies are a lot closer to first-run than they ever were). I’m glad that it was saved, I was always sure that it was about to be torn down. I am sad that our old house was razed for a 2 million dollar mansion, but I am glad that the Aero remains.
