Bleecker Street Cinemas, Art house movie theater in Greenwich Village, US
The cinema featured independent and foreign films in two screening rooms: a main auditorium with 171 seats and the James Agee Room with 78 seats.
Filmmaker Lionel Rogosin established the cinema in 1960 to present his film 'Come Back, Africa' before its closure and transformation into retail space in 1991.
The venue supported emerging talent in the film industry, with Bruce Goldstein and Bingham Ray starting their careers at this Manhattan establishment.
Located at 144 Bleecker Street in Manhattan, the theater operated as one of New York City's primary venues for independent film screenings.
The building's structure dates to 1832 as two rowhouses, later receiving a new facade by architect Raymond Hood in 1920.
