great work Ed & Warren, enjoyed these updated views of The Majestic. would like wide angle shots from stage to audience seating and vice versa if possible.. anybody got shot like these..???Thanks again for the great shots..enjoyed the inclustion of the bovis/coop on the corner..one the easiest ways to change the face of a neighborhood just drop something that sticks out and over everthing..wait till they finish The Stadium (Atlantic Yards) progress ha ha ha (smile)

i actually lived ON Ashland Pl (the backside of Majestic as an adult. (1970’s) But..I remember as a kid going to this affordable/safe cinema..box of crackerjacks and hot dog..The Black Whip and Flash Gordon.. sat matinee man what more could a KID want..50’s..( lived on state. st. so this was a safe reachable haven for a kid on sat..(In the ‘70’s had a music group that rented a loft space on Ashland Pl that became my residence by default when the band broke up.. i remember making exploration to my old childhood haunt..got to go all way to the water tower on the roof .. found a trunk in a room on second fl landing backstage.. definetly left over from Vaudv"stage days.. costume. stuff but too moldy and destroyed over the years of abandonment..like the theatre..yes its basement was flooded and rancdid but the balconies were still cool to visit..found some old light scones..and visited the old offices over the marquee..not much to save unfortunately vandals had p[cked the old girl over wouldn’t be long before she would be torched &/ or demolished..glad they saved her..albeit the “trashed retro look”..
