this has reopened as a music venue called “The Fallser Club.”
very cool to see a former palace like this get saved & reused!

absolutely beautiful old theater. just noticed it for the first time today. so sad to hear about how the auditorium was gutted. wish more people respected these beautiful old cinema palaces!!!
I agree that this listing should be changed to closed. It appears to be currently available for rent: https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1027-1035-Brighton-Beach-Ave-Brooklyn-NY/20301550/
full demolition permit issued for the strand. https://li.phila.gov/property-history/search/permit-detail?address=1200-02%20W%20GIRARD%20AVE&Id=ZP-2021-008813
interesting fact: the original chandelier and some other facets of this theater were relocated to Ashland, Oregon: https://oregoncabaret.com/about-us/history/
I uploaded some shots from Google Street View. If this is indeed the original theater, as I surmise, then it has since been demolished, seemingly between August 2014 - July 2017.
This building has been historically preserved, and has been acquired by local Puerto Rican nonprofit APM, to be rehabbed and restored!!!
It is so sad that this was demolished.
Unbelievably beautiful theater! Had the absolute pleasure of performing here tonight. I hope it is preserved for decades to come

I used to frequent this theater as a child in the 90s. So sad to learn of its demise.
This looks to have sadly been demolished and turned into a high-rise apartment by about 2017.

i hope someone saves the Roxy! fond memories here
anyone have any photos from when the Strand was active, pre-1958?
any relation to The Strand at 1200 West Girard Avenue?
@ EsseXploreR, were you able to obtain entrance to the inside? any idea when it might be demolished?
