I’m very interested to see the address given above for this theatre as 570 Bergen Avenue, because the information I had said the address was 500 Bergen Avenue. I spent many hours walking around that area trying to identify the location so I could take a “now” pic to go with the “then” pic on my web page (scroll half-way down):

I haven’t been by there in a while, but the last time I saw this building and took pictures it was half-way torn down. Most of the side walls were down and you could see the inside was a shell. Interestingly, the front facade was largely intact. I expect this building won’t be standing much longer. To see the pics I took in the summer of 2002, click here:

Amazingly, this ancient theatre building still stands and I think it looks in pretty good shape all things considered. To view several pics taken in 2002, click here:

The Unity Restaurant is no longer there. It’s been replaced by a new bar/restaurant.

The building at this location today houses a Cookies Department Store. My question is whether this is the old theatre building or a structure that replaced it. For pics, click here and go to bottom of page:
