Description
A night view of the old Alabama Theatre on the streets of Birmingham, AL. The Alabama Theatre has a familiar story to anyone who loves historic movie palaces. Built in the 1920's for Paramount's chain of theaters, it would later decline as the city's urban core faded. Most of its contemporaries faded away but the Alabama Theatre was ultimately saved and today is the official state theater of Alabama.
Based on several different photos taken of the old Alabama Theatre by the Historic American Building Survey for the US government, probably circa the 1980s or 1990s.
