I added a photo of the LoewsPost Road…for those who want to see it.
The building has been cleaned up (except the graffiti covered vertical sign) and has reopened as a supermarket. The owners have a large wall honoring the history of the theatre with some lovely pictures and posters. You can easily make out the theatre highlights and projection booth.
Nice photos.
Now we talking – this link/site www.forgotten-ny.com/STREET%20SCENES/theatresbronx/bronxthea.html
is a jewel.
This theater to my recollection, was north of the Melba theater on Boston Post Road, almost directly across the street from: John’s Bargain Stores, and Ionatti Meats. Had it’s popularity dwindle in the 60’s, when it fell, like so many other movies houses to a Bingo Hall. Nice area in the late 50’s early 60’s.
This was where i saw the first James Bond movie “DR NO” AND Believe it or not it was the second feature. This theater is about two blocks east of the Melba on Boston Post Road.
Hopefully, this one will connect.

This theater is now a church known as the Cathedral Baptist Church.
Was this theater ever known as Loew’s Bolte??
