Notes
  • Significance: Built as a movie theatre just before the advent of talking films, it is one of the last theatres built especially for silent movies. However, its architect, the Viennese Joseph Maria Urban, a noted theatre architect and stage designer, saw to it that the theatre was acoustically suited to the musical accompaniment of silent films, to which purpose he had installed a large pipe organ, as well as to the sound of live stage performances. These acoustics of the house would serve also the talking picture, of whose impending approach Urban was well aware. Entered on National Register 12/12/73.
  • Survey number: HABS FL-230
  • Building/structure dates: 1926 Initial Construction
