Taken over by Warner Bros Circuit Management in September 1929.
Actually further research shows the Tremont Theatre built in 1926 was the second one on the site. The original Tremont was a church that was converted to a movie theatre in 1910 before being demolished so the newer one could be erected.
This theatre could not have been built in 1926 as it is listed in the 1914/15 American Motion Picture Directory.
The ‘Tremont Theater’ was on the southwesterly corner of Main & Tremont Sts. Following the “Flood of ‘55”, in the '60’s 'Reconstruction" razed virtually all the buildings south of Tremont Street, down to front Street in Ansonia. A Mall and other retail buildings, took their place. That Mall subsequently folded, and a mini-mega store area has taken it’s place.
