According the Wikipedia entry for Westville, the former Westville Theatre is now an antiques store: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westville_(New_Haven)).
That is not this Westville Theatre, which is demolished. The previous Westville Theatre was also known as the West Rock Theatre and was just down the road at 827 Whalley Avenue. See my photos of it at http://www.cinematour.com/tour/us/35275.html
The Westville Theater survived into the 1970s – I saw Saturday Night Fever and Super Fly there. Small neighborhood second run theater in the Westville section of New Haven.
