I love the fact that Seattle has so many lovely old Art Deco
theaters. The Guild 45th II is conveniently located right outside a
convenient Tully’s Coffee – which was very beneficial yesterday as it was raining
and I could see the theater right through the window. The original Guild 45th Theater
was built in 1919 and is two doors down from this facade which is technically
the “Guild 45th II.” Although the Guild II was built in 1983 it was designed to
look similar to the original building.
The original façade is painted pink/salmon and the new one
is painted teal. Although both theaters look a little worn, both still have great
neon.
If you know this street, you will notice that I have omitted
certain details including the power lines and the tree that is growing right in
front of the facade. On a nice day perhaps I'll paint the companion theater, "The Guild 45th" to complete the set. :-)
