A view of the atriums at the Alexander Theatre (later known as the Alex Theatre) located on Brand Avenue in Glendale, ca. 1925. Designed by architects Charles R. Selkirk and Arthur G. Lindley with an emphasis on Greek and Egyptian themes, it opened its doors as a Vaudeville and motion picture house in 1925. In 1940, the Greek Revival theater was modified by S. Charles Lee, who added a 100 foot tall Art Deco tower, a three-sided marquee, outdoor ticketing kiosk, and the decorative terrazzo floor crested in bright tropical colors. Source: LAPL
