Google has not gotten to Atlantic City yet, for reasons unknown. I will take another look when I go there later this year.

I would be curious to know where this one was. Also, I wonder if it actually opened as a film house in 1903. Seems kind of early.

I did not see any building at this address when I was in AC last year. Google maps will not load where I am now, so perhaps someone can take a look and see if this is in fact a parking lot.

Sorry, wrong Belasco. It belongs on the Follies page, I think.
