A great blast from the past in dining history of Grand Rapids. There were so many fine restaurants in downtown back in the day that, of course, are long gone. One special place that you may never have heard of was Bauman's Café.
Remembering Studio 28
If you were around Grand Rapids in the 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s you probably went to Studio 28 to see a movie!
Jack Loeks opened Studio 28, on 28th Street in Wyoming, back in 1965. It was just a single theater that could seat 1,000 movie goers.
Two years after opening, Studio 28 added another theater, often referred to as the Little Studio . As a kid, I remember seeing movies in both theaters!
In 1976, Jack Loeks Theatres made another big leap, by expanding to six screens. This was something only a few theaters in the country were doing at the time. Those that wanted to see a variety of different movies now had additional choices when they went to Studio 28, now with a half dozen separate screens.
