Description: Uptown Theatre (1925), Rapp & Rapp, Chicago Landmark, Chicago, Illinois, May 17, 2011: "The Uptown Theatre was designed by the architects who were largely responsible for popularizing the motion picture palace. The crown jewel of the Balaban and Katz theater chain, it was the focus of the Uptown entertainment district of the 1920s. The Spanish Revival style design was loosely derived from Spanish Baroque architecture and included nearly 4,500 seats, making it the second largest movie palace in the United States after New York's Radio City Music Hall. The architects also designed the Chicago Theater." Quoted text from: [1]
