Village East Cinema - Cinema History

Village East Cinema - Cinema History: "HISTORY OF THE VILLAGE EAST CINEMA

http://www.villageeastcinema.com/angelika_history.asp?hID=166&ID=120&page=Cinema+History

The Village East Cinema, located at 181-189 Second Avenue, opened in 1926 as The Yiddish Art Theater in the heart of New York City’s Jewish Rialto district. Designed by prominent Brooklyn lawyer and Jewish community leader Louis Jaffe, the historic building was built as an elaborate, 1265 seat live theater for Yiddish theater pioneer Maurice Schwartz. The interior was designed in the Moorish Revival style that was popular in synagogues at the time, and included a forty-foot ornamental ceiling with a spectacular Star of David in the center that is still present today.
