Title
English: Drawing of Orpheum theater, Seattle, circa 1927
Description
English:

The new Orpheum Theatre opened August 25, 1927 and was heralded as one of the finest vaudeville and "photoplay" houses on the West Coast. Designed in Spanish Renaissance style by the famous architect B. Marcus Priteca, the building stood at the corner of 5th and Stewart until 1967, when it was destroyed for construction of the Washington Plaza Hotel. This pen and ink drawing features the exterior of the Orpheum Theater at 1900 5th Avenue in Seattle.
