1937: THE GARDEN THEATRE:

There it was all those years in the 20th century. It was a "second run" theater that folded with the destruction in the 1960's. The great old theater ended up as a sex-oriented theater before it closed. It was located on North Broad Street just north of Academy Street.

Before it became a porn show shop, It was a good little family theatre.
"Family night" was once a week, and they gave away free dishes each week till you owned the whole set. In addition you got a double feature, a host of "short subjects", and other things to bring you in.
Only went there a few times since it was the furthest from my South Trenton home and was located in what really began as "North trenton just a few blocks north at the battle monument.

Good to see you back at the keyboard pal.
