New Regal Theater
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Regal Theater is located at 1641 East 79th Street in Chicago, Illinois. Originally named the Avalon, it is a 1927 Moorish Revival movie palace designed by John Eberson. Following renovations in 1985, it was renamed in honor of the Regal Theater, a cultural center for Chicago's African American community that was demolished in 1973.
The New Regal Theater received Chicago Landmark status on June 17, 1992.[1]
