Description
The Warner Brothers Downtown Theatre, previously the Pantages Theatre, located at 401 W. 7th Street, was designed by architect B. Marcus Priteca in the Greek revival style in 1919, and opened on August 16, 1920.
A view of the northwest corner of 7th & Hill taken from a quarter of a block away and looking down 7th street. A vertical sign on the building identifies the Pantages, and the marquee reads: "Submarine and Sound of Music second big week - now". Crowds of people are in the crosswalks in front of the theatre and on both sides of Hill.
