adventdude commented about Loew's Delancey Theatre on Oct 24, 2023 at 9:03 am

My grandfather, Abe Levy, managed the Loew’s Delancey for the better part of my childhood (and I believe his long tenure ended when it was shut down in the 1970s). He ended up adopting a large number of stray cats that found their way to the theater and brought in large bags of cat food daily. Though they would often wander the theater before the public gained access, all but one of the cats would relocate themselves behind the screen as soon as the doors opened. (The exception was a gigantic cat that my grandfather named “The Godfather” that would move to his office out front. He’d lay on the desk and pretty much take up the entire surface. I wish I had photos.)
