Paramount Theatre
Designed in 1930 by Temple Buell, the opulent Art Deco Paramount Theatre is the last of the original downtown Denver movie palaces. The interior represents an excellent example of "Zig Zag Art Deco" design, the fanciful and ornamental architectural expression popularized in the Jazz Age. The building was also equipped with luxuries consistent with the golden age of film, such as a splendidly ornamented lobby, a vaulted sunburst ceiling, cut glass chandeliers, Egyptian lights, Italian marble, and a neon marquee.
