Here are my recent pictures of the Uptown Theatre!
As the theatre's page on Cinema Treasure says, this is one of the last remaining truly great theatres with an uncertain future. Seating over 4000 people, the Uptown was built in 1925 and has been abandoned since 1981. It is arguably the biggest theatre in the country in terms of interior space; bigger even than Radio City Music Hall.

I love that you can still see "Balaban and Katz", the name of the large theater chain whose flagship the Uptown Theatre was.
