Actually further research shows the Tremont Theatre built in 1926 was the second one on the site. The original Tremont was a church that was converted to a movie theatre in 1910 before being demolished so the newer one could be erected.
This theatre could not have been built in 1926 as it is listed in the 1914/15 American Motion Picture Directory.
The ‘Tremont Theater’ was on the southwesterly corner of Main & Tremont Sts. Following the “Flood of ‘55”, in the '60’s 'Reconstruction" razed virtually all the buildings south of Tremont Street, down to front Street in Ansonia. A Mall and other retail buildings, took their place. That Mall subsequently folded, and a mini-mega store area has taken it’s place.
