When frankie posted that only a few people were at the theatre I assumed business was terribly bad. Perhaps NativeForestHiller could begin the land mark process while we try to contact the theatre management.
Mr Hirshon answered my email. He wants people to call him and tell him about the Ridgewood theatre. This was his answer; Thanks for the update! Would it be possible for you to give your own phone number so I can interview you about this, and maybe the phone numbers of others who are concerned about the project? If you’d rather, you can just give them my phone number at the News. It’s 718-793-3328. C'mon fella’s Mr Hirshon wants to help. Give him a call.
Thanx so much NativeForestHiller. I did find something in my quest for a contact address.
E-MAIL ADDRESSES FOR WRITERS AND EDITORS
For general e-mails and tips to the News Desk, e-mail: .com
In general, Daily News staffers use a standard style for e-mail addresses, using the first letter of their first name and their full last name to form the beginning of their e-mail address. For example, “Paul Jones” would have an e-mail address of .com If you want the e-mail address of a staffer whose name does not appear in the paper, call our main switchboard at (212) 210-2100 and ask to be connected to the person or his/her department.
If I understand correctly the email address should be .com I have sent an email to that address. Perhaps others should send an email also. I will now send an email to as posted by NativeForestHiller. BrooklynJim I mentioned Cinema Treasures in my email to Mr Hirshon. I agree with EdSolero and Bway about the NativeForestHiller comment being a news item. We need more folk’s to participate.
I will look for a contact address for the N.Y. Daily News. Perhaps I can find a method to reach Mr Hirshon. What a stroke of luck it would be if Mr Hirshon read these comments.
haha perhaps you should follow your own advice. You bicker over addresses in other theatres yet you tell people that they don’t need an exact address for the RKO Keith’s Theatre. Too funny.
I don’t want to spend years trying to have the Ridgewood theatre land marked BrooklynJim. I have never been to Ridgewood before but I am willing to lend some help in spite of that. More folks from Ridgewood proper need to get involved. The fella that owns this theatre should tell us his side of the story. Perhaps he doesn’t want land mark status.
Not exactly accurate fella. You gave 3 addresses and you weren’t sure which one was correct. Besides; you gave the wrong address in the first place. It took both edsolero and lostmemory to sort out the correct address.
Thanx lostmemory. I understand perfectly. Perhaps the other fella would like to try and prove his claim. He recently claimed the address for the Bayside Theatre was incorrect. He was proven wrong about that address also. Some people just like to stir the pot when they have nothing of value to write.
The fella called NativeForestHiller once mentioned he could help to have the Ridgewood theatre land marked. Very nice of you to contact the owner frankie. Thanx.
Identifying the fella in the photo might be difficult. Could be a passerby. Could be associated with the theatre. Perhaps someone will come here to identify that fella.
Well put BrooklynJim. In addition to the people on this website more people living in Ridgewood should get involved in the land mark process. It is their theatre. Perhaps someone like ‘Tonino could find an email for Orlando Mendoz and Joe Diaz.
Yes you could enroll in a Pilates course and take photos of the interior.

Cool photo. You got two theatres for the price of one. haha

Very cool photo. Sorry about the theatre.

So what. I thought the most modern up to date address was to be used so long as it is the same building.
Are you trying to tell us that we are getting in over our head BrooklynJim? This will never work unless more folk’s get involved.
Perhaps it was formerly a swap meet. A business search reveals Fox Discount Department Store
620 Lincoln Blvd, Venice, CA, United States
Phone: (310) 392-3477
Location Type: Single Location
Embroidery Services’s Discount Department Store
In my opinion an individual email would work better. The more the merrier.

Very cool photo. Must have been a good movie showing at this theatre with a crowd that large.
I found a new 2006 photo of this Alameda Theater.

Identifying the fella in the photo might be difficult. Could be a passerby. Could be associated with the theatre. Perhaps someone will come here to identify that fella.
Post the same ad in many theatres. Cool idea. Thanx.
The second photo is very cool. Thanx.
Very cool photo. As usual you are the man. haha
Where is the 1948 date on the photo? Perhaps you can point out my oversight.

From the information posted I would say East Rochester. Shouldn’t the person that added this theatre know the location.
