History
- Claremont Shops
- Siegel's
- From Ranjit Sandhu, via BuffaloAH: 475 Main Street was once Steve Brodie's Saloon. "475 Main Street came to play a significant role (or actually, a significant footnote) in motion-picture history, for it was here that Mitchell and Moe Mark hired Fred A. Baynes to remodel the old saloon into the Edisonia Penny Arcade. This was no later than 1902. The Mark brothers, now forgotten, were pioneers of a sort, and by sheer happenstance brought together Adolph Zukor, Marcus Loew, and a number of others who would later come to found the Hollywood studio empires. By 1906 the Mark brothers had converted the Edisonia to a movie house and changed its name to the Automatic Vaudeville Company. And then on Saturday, 16 May 1908 the Marks' former business partner Rudolph Wagner re-opened it as the Theatre Comique, a ten-cent cinema."
