I was born and raised in Fairview, NJ the next town over and as a child, I took the 22 Hillside bus down Bergenline Ave. to the Embassy theater. It was one of those wonderful old theaters with dark red velvet seats, chandeliers, beautiful lobby. I moved out of NJ at 20 in 1972 and always wondered what happened to it. It lives in my memories, and I wrote a short story about it, you can access it online by typing in its title, The Last Cool Summer, or my name.
