Save The 1939 Trylon Theater!!!
Sign Now
The signers of this petition agree that the 1939 Art Deco/Moderne Trylon Theater (98-81 Queens Blvd, Forest Hills, NY) is one of the last standing structures which has a strong cultural, historical, & architectural significance to the 1939 Worldвs Fair, with its вTrylon & Perisphereв monuments. On behalf of residents and historical societies, it is of utmost importance to halt further demolition, restore what was lost during the conversion, preserve this icon, and officially landmark this truly rare gem of a theater!!!

I often went there in the 50s/60s. Was there not a bowling alley above or adjacent?

This is an unusual case where the developers have a real opportunity to maintain the stylistic integrity of this structure, please allow the past to remain alive where you can!

We need to hold on to as much of the remaining history as possible. We should be celebrating the history of Queens, not erasing it. There is no reason the character and architecture of the Trylon cannot be preserved and coexist peacefully with a Community

We've already lost The RKO KEITH and many other 'movie palaces' of the past. Queens deserves to have the Trylon preserved as a landmark.
