Pitman Theater - Gadsden, AL - Vintage Movie Theaters on Waymarking.com

"This theater, which opened in 1947, was designed by Birmingham based architect David O. Whilldin. It closed in 1983 and was willed to the City of Gadsden after its owner passed away. It sat vacant and in a state of disrepair until efforts to restore it were begun in 1997.

"The exterior has been almost completely restored and work is continuing on the interior. The original lobby and projection booth are still in place, but the auditorium had to be gutted because of the severe damage it had sustained.

"Current plans for the theater are for conversion into a multi-purpose community center."
