Milford, Connecticut sports a rather elegant deco facade. The marquee

The Colonial Theatre features a wonderful theatre entrance that still
stands but no longer draws crowds to it's matinees. Unusual for the era

The Warner Theatre in Torrington, CT features an asymmetrical
art deco theatre facade, a rare sight indeed. This is an exception to
the art deco norm of structure and balance and reflects back to the golden
age of skyscrapers.
