Sadly the theater closed around 1989 when Rockins first big multiplex you a cinemas opened. They turned it into a place for live music and acts like meatloaf winger and the guitarist from kiss Ace freely perform to thei and the guitarist from kiss ace freely performed there. Eventually turned into a nightclub and there were some shooting and stabbing were someone died. It was closed and then torn down. A new building occupies where the theater used to be and it has a pizza place and a few other businesses

The June 23, 1963, issue of the Orangetown Telegram has an article announcing the opening of a Cinema 45 the following night. The article gives the location of the theater as Hillcrest, New York, but items in later issues of the same newspaper say it is in Spring Valley.

The 600-seat house was to be programmed as an art cinema, with the Peter Sellers film Only Two Can Play as the opening attraction. The theater was located in the Hillcrest Shopping Center on Route 45 (Main Street) at the northeast corner of Hickory Street. The address I found for the shopping center is 288 N. Main Street, Spring Valley, NY, 10977.

It is now a Central American/ Hatian nightclub. Very scary looking structurally, not well taken care of. The marquee sign in the parking lot fell over in a storm a few years ago, could have been Hurricane Floyd or the nasty July ‘02 hail/lightning storm.
