I lived very close to this theater growing up. Remember seeing “Battlestar Galactica” the movie there in the 1970’s. Every now and then I visit it as an antique mall. Love the antiques but also enjoy standing where the screen used to be. I also worked at now closed Northtown 6 theater just down the street.
My Father, Jim Winter, was the manager that opened the Park Forest and remained so for the majority of the years that it was opened. Many fond memories!
I worked this theatre as a projectionist beginning in 1975 when it was still a first-run theatre. If this theatre did open with 70MM equipment, it had been removed by ten years later—-we ran 35MM Simplex heads.
