Here's a night shot of the Guild Theatre in Menlo Park, CA. This deco delight was built in the 1920's and features neon to enhance its look.
The neon was recently turned on again at the small movie theatre in Novato, California (Marin County). The Novato Theatre is not open presently, but they are trying to maintain the building in hopes of having it open in the future for plays, etc. However, it will take a lot of money to retrofit the building for earthquake safety. 04-06
Here's the famous Del Mar Theatre from downtown Santa Cruz, CA. The Del Mar opened in 1936 and was an area landmark until being suddenly shut down in November 1999. Fortunately, due to the effort of the community, preservation groups, and the redevelopment agency, among others, the Del Mar was reopened in a new grand opening on March 2, 2001. More info can be found at the Friends of the Del Mar. 02-07
