I worked a block away in the 80’s and went to the movies every week – sometimes a couple of times a week. I loved going there. They were clean, played the regular movies, plus the art & foreign movies. Used to catch the 5PM’s to avoid the crazy lines.

Remember getting an invite to the Patch Adams screening while waiting in line for a blockbuster movie, which I can’t recall.

I went to see Tootsie on opening day & saw Dustin Hoffman when I was leaving. I do remember the winding staircase. It was nice.

I remember going to this theater to watch movies in the 70’s/80’s. It had seen better days, but it was still a beautiful place – even after all the years of neglect. I haven’t been in the area for a while but really hope that this is the beginning of Fordham Road’s revival.
