You can still see “LOEWS” etched in the brick when leaving the 4 train down the stairs to West Fordham & Jerome Ave.. Look @ Kenroe pics above..
True Mike, comparded to the Loews Grand Atlanta Lots of history and photos on that page.
Not a lot of post for an NYC Theatre.
Three photographs I took of the Loew’s Grand Theater in June 2005:

The auditorium of the Grand was long ago gutted completely and refitted with two or three complete levels. There is a college operating in it. The Wiz was in the former lobby and some of the other retail space.
So there is now nothing left of the old theater?
Judging from the marquee, which features the film “New York”, in all likelihood the photo at the following site is from 1927 or 28:
