Join us for a fascinating walking tour of the Broadway Historic Theatre and Commercial District and explore the social, cinematic and architectural history of this unique street. Home to an astonishing twelve movie palaces built between 1910 and 1931 and nearly two dozen major department and clothing stores, Broadway was once the entertainment epicenter of Los Angeles. Although the theatres no longer regularly show films, their elegant presence remains, revealing the glitz and glamour of a bygone era.
