  • <p>Here is a photo of the great Goshen Theatre in Goshen, NY after it was closed but (obviously) prior to its demolition. My father was manager for this theatre in the mid-to-late-1960s, a small operation that involved my Mom as cashier and me and my brother doing concessions and cleaning up. I put up the then heavy letters on the marquee every Tuesday night while listening to the WABC top 40 countdown by Cousin Brucie (Bruce Morrow) on 77-ABC AM on my transistor radio.</p>

  • <p>The Berkeley, in about 1983. This shows the facade remodel designed by S. Charles Lee in the 1930s–minus the vertical sign and neon clock on the marquee, and with the metallic marquee soffit fascia and earth toned color scheme added shortly before this photo was taken. This would be the theater’s appearance until its 1990s demolition.</p>
