After reading most of the posts on the LOEWS WILLARD it seems most of the comments were about anything else except the theatre, personal attacks and just plain bitching,nothing wrong with getting off-topic now and then, this is a fun site lets try to keep it that way.No wonder there are no new posts on this site if you read through all the bull comments you would loose interest in what you were talking about.
Makes me want to cry.I have about 300 onesheets, could have had a lot more if I had thought to start keeping them earlier than I did.Even our old city Manager who worked for Loews about 30 years would say what does anyone want them for.

Did not know that you were a Disco King Mike. You should have seen my 3-piece Peach colored pined stripped suit. I would not be caught dead it it now.Of course this was the late 70’s, I had a mullet too.WE were pimping!!!
Those two Clint flicks showed down the street at the Tennessee Theatre, we always got the Bond flicks,Pink Panthers,Woody Allen, Rockys, type shows.The Manager of the Tennessee Mr. Harry Vickers would let our employees in to see their shows and we would do the same for them.It was a site to see when the Paramont, Tennessee,and Loews Crescent all had big pull shows. WE would all have lines of people waiting to get in at the same time, hundreds of people on Church Street. Those were the days.
No Mike Loews provided the red jackets for our doorman and ushers,but the managers had to wear our own suits.I guess they thought with our “LARGE SALARIES” that we could afford to wear our suits. I had 4 that I would rotate working 6 days a week. I only traded passes for a parking space behind the Loews Crescent as it was downtown and we did not have a parking lot.
Nice looking marquee.How many Palace Theatres were there in the U.S.?
Nice looking small theatre.
Would like to see pictures of the MGM-LOEWS Carpet.
Nice looking building, too bad there are no pictures of when it was a LOEWS.
Cool Nick.I have changed a few in my time too.
Looks more like a firestone tire store.
Looks much better now.
Interesting that the Metro and Loews were designed by the same people.

Nice interior photos, I do not know why anyone would call it ugly,looks much better than any new multi-plex I have seen anywhere.
Looks a little better in the 2008 photo than the 1986.
Somebody call an usher Mike Rodgers is sneaking in the back door again!!!!!
Sneaked in the back door huh Mike?

Looked this theatre up for a friend who used to live there,he said it was the only movie house in Crown Point.
Must be a small theatre.
Big low Little low, how low can you go?Cool history.
Whats the problem it was on or at the corner of 86th. Street?
Good luck to you Staten Island Paramount. Good to see the old movie houses still going.
