   EDITOR REVIEW:

EASTERN CANAL RING.   Whimsical and extravagant, this circa-1921 theater is a mad foray into creativity, an Art Deco study of color and shape. Named for the Jewish tailor who envisioned and financed the structure, the movie theater is a spectacle of stained glass, exotic woods, handmade carpets and painted murals. Completely restored in April 2002, the theater is not only a bit of history reclaimed but a tribute to Abraham Tuschinski, who created the building and was gassed to death in Auschwitz in 1942. Now owned by Pathé, movies are still shown, but even if you don't experience one, make sure to step into the Tuschinski for the pure visual appeal.
