Answer to Lost Memory: The auditorium is effectively gone. The front of the theatre and the rear-most part of the auditorium structure were saved for ultimate conversion to retail and/or housing and/or office space.
I intend to upload some pictures but “Cinema Treasures” is overhauling their site as I understand it and can’t at this time.
As off 9/24/08 the rear 2/3 of the building (the auditorium portion) is being torn-down. Rochester has now succeeded in ridding itself of all its sizable movie theatres – what a shame! I’ll post some pictures at a later date.
