The multiplex and the mega mall have replaced main street in most of our towns. As I travel across America I pass through small towns where the local theater on main street is closed or being used for other purposes or being torn down. I have put together a set of photographs of these grand old palaces, in the hope that we can all remember the days in our lives when our parents dropped us off for the matinee while they shopped on main street, or the nights when we took our best date there. Please always remember the grand old palaces that were once a staple in our lives.
