Mr Malone account is accurate. The theater was torn down for Arlans. Hastings was never on the corner of Piedmont and Lindberg. Spent many nights in the baack seat of my parents car Watching Elvis movies, How the West Was Won, and can remember the largest crowd for The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. The line went thru the winding drive and overflowed out onto Lindberg. Remember ther had a board up by concession stand that you matched your ticket number and could win goodies at concession stand. When I was real small use to be scared to go to bathroom because you had to go down those 3 or 4 steps to get to there. Very fond memories of this place and Hastings. We would shop for Christmas tree every year at Hastings. Loved playing by the pond while parents shopped. Zesto’s was always a treat. Kiddieland at Broadview Plaza was place to have Birthday parties.
