I never visited the Glenwood while it was a theater, so don’t know when it closed as a theater, but I did go to it a few times when it was a bowling alley. I was a small child when it was a bowling alley, so don’t know what if any ornamentation of it’s theater days survived the conversion. I do however remember the huge marquee with “Glenwood” on it very well. That was still all there in it’s bowling alley days. It was actually demolished in the mid-80’s to late 80’s (unlike the 90’s mentioned above), and the post office built on it’s site.

There was also a Glenwood Theater on Flatbush Avenue near Glenwood Road. I have seen a picture of it with its distinct vertical blade sign running above the marque. For years it was a rug and carpet store, but now it’s a Super Wash and Dry Center. From soap operas to soap suds…
