Highrise Tower Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I was browsing The Houston Post dated February 23, 1924 and saw this movie listing for Lincoln Theatre located at 711 Prairie St. Looking on Cinematreasures, this theater was awesome! Opened in 1916 as a vaudeville theatre. It had a 20ft x 24ft stage, 18 sets of lines and two dressing rooms. By 1921 it was operated as an African-American movie & vaudeville theatre, operated by the Bijou Amusement Company. It was demolished in 1977 and the site became a parking lot for the Houston Chronicle. http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/11383 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
