Mayfair Triplex

The Mayfair Theater was originally a single-screen theater which opened prior to 1941 and had a seating capacity of 1,500, including a balcony. At some point during the late-1980’s or early-1990’s, it was converted to a triplex.

The last time I was there they still had an old vending machine that poured soda for you into a paper cup (remember that?).

The Mayfair Triplex had closed by the Summer of 2010.

The current Google Street View, the front is still in great shape, can still look through clear glass on the doors – nothing’s boarded up. I wonder if it’s currently being used for anything. A very ornate façade which (although completely painted white) is still in very good shape.

Interesting from the aerial view: Long lobby and then you turn left to enter the auditorium – fairly wide auditorium. But then the stage house is backing up against the street – surprising to see valuable street frontage taken up with the stagehouse!

@spectrum, not sure if it’s currently being used but I got a tour of the theater sometime after it closed down. Maybe in 2011. Though nothing was boarded up, it didn’t look very nice. I don’t think anyone was maintaining it. There’s also lots of graffiti.

I live in front of it Gosh this place always got my attention. The place is still closed, it’s in good shape and I think that they rent the parking lot. I always wanted to go inside but I don’t want to go to jail lol

@jcstuart – do you still have pictures of that space? I’m working on a blog for #nohu (north hudson) and would love to feature an article on this space with your photos (credited of course). Also did you make any segue with the town officials? I may have an investor interested in making it a community space for cultural affairs.
