This is such a shame. I walked by a few weeks ago and noticed it was closed ( i swear I was going to The Funny Store next door!!). Besides being one of the oldest theaters around- it’s architecture is so distinct and cool, it’s neon sinage is awesome, and it’s just about the only reminder left of old school gritty New York. So much for character I guess. Yey for homogenization!
Thanks for the info Garth. I saw the article about Travis in the Advance this weekend… I wonder what they’ll do with it. It seems everything around that area is doomed to fail.

I was always under the impression that Korvettes was where K-Mart is now. The Richmond Theatre is in the Pergament Shopping Center where Pergament used to be (now a Best Buy) and Toys R Us still stands.
The Island Theater was in the same shopping center as K-mart.
According to a fourm on SILive.com, only the outdoor shots of the Fox Plaza were used in “He Knows You’re Alone”. The indoor shots are all from the St. George Theater.

The indoor flea market was called Four Bridges.
