Located in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn. This movie theatre opened in 1912 and was operated by Hermann & Whittner. In 1914 it was named the Paramount Theatre. It was a small movie theatre, and was closed in 1917.
It was converted into retail use and by 1940 was a shoe store. By June 2013 it was a mens & womens clothing store. By 2018 it was a fruit & vegitable store named Mr Lemon.

What was the seating capacity of this theater and who was the architect? Also, in what style was it designed?
I am sure this was a very small makeshift theater that was not designed in any notable style. Most of the theaters like it closed before the 1920’s.
Might this have been a movie theatre?
