Apparently some kind of stalled renovation is currently going on at this location.

The place looks good on the outside, but it says the interior has been gutted.

In the late 60’s it was a rock club, very popular with college kids from the southern half of the Island.

Unfortunately, the Stadium Theatre is slated for the wrecking ball very soon :–(

I was in there a few years ago and there was nothing but open, empty space. Nothing but bare block walls and a level floor…No signs that it ever was a theatre.

It was sold for $235,000 on August 10, 1998. It has been listed for sale for a few years, off and on with asking prices from $925,000 to $1,500,000. Last listed price was $1,800,000 this past October (2004)

The current owners are planning for mid-rise condo apartments, at least, that’s the last word on it.

Here’s the remarks from the last MLS listing, October 2004:

THIS EXISTING BUILDING IS BEING APPROVED FOR 16 “MANHATTAN STYLE” LUXURY APTS,COMPLETE W/PARKING & GYM PLUS ROOM FOR POOL OR TENNIS COURT. APTS TO HAVE LOFT STYLE FEELING W/HIGH CEIL. GREAT INVESTMENT,PLANS IN OFFICE. COULD BE USED AS COMMERCIAL OR BOTH.

Sad to see another theatre go!

This theater may have stood in the southernmost S.I. neighborhood of Tottenville.
