Behind the sagging wire fence, all that's left of 55 Eckford Street, Greenpoint is a skeleton, its steel ribs turned rusty from months of rain. A tangle of weeds has shot up amongst the bottles and soggy cardboard covering the ground, and blue construction tarp flaps in the autumn wind. The place smells faintly of urine.

Vestiges of the old movie houses remain. The American Theatre at 910 Manhattan Avenue, later renamed the Chopin, became Greenpoint's first Starbucks. The building still bears the original marquee. The Meserole Theatre, further along Manhattan, transformed into a roller rink and then a Rite Aid (hence the disco ball hanging over the diapers and shampoo). The last theater to fall was the Commodore, at 329 Broadway, which closed its doors in 2002 and was torn down in early 2007.
