I do not think the Montauk movie theater is the biggest problem the city of Passaic has. The city of Passaic as well as her sister city of Paterson have been on a steady decline for decades. I grew up in Paterson and spent time in Passaic before moving west years ago. The Fabain theater in Paterson is a prime example of the decline over the decades. Lou Costello premiered many of his motion pictures at the Fabian. Now it is slated for the recking ball. An exploited shell of her once grandness. I remember the Capital theater on Monore street. My godmothers mother worked the ticket booth at the Capital in the 60’s. The Montauk went porn I believe in the 70’s. These place’s represent the past of the former inhabitants of the area. The new generation of inhabitants I guess want their own. So it is a good thing there are forums such as this so old dinasaurs like I can relieve and share some of our past. Thank you.
