The 1932 Paramount Theatre opened with seating for 1,200. The theatre closed in the mid 1970's.

The Pueblo Deco style exterior has been preserved, but the auditorium has been converted to a parking garage.

The neon and incandescent lit sign on the front of the building has been restored.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
