Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Granada Theater is a grand movie palace in Kansas City's historic downtown in Wyandotte County, Kansas. The theater is designed in the Mission style with Spanish and Moorish influences.[1]Шаблон:Rp Dominating the facade is a large Palladian window, flanked by terracotta pieces. Below the window is the main entrance, which centers on a glass ticket booth. The eastern and western ends of the facade's first floor are occupied by small storefronts.[1]Шаблон:Rp

History

Ben Gorman and William A. Toplikar arranged for the theater's erection in 1928,[1]Шаблон:Rp contracting with the Boller Brothers to perform the construction. The theater flourished until the 1960s, when the rising popularity of television reduced the profitability of traditional theaters; after it closed late in the decade, it was periodically reopened by others, but none lasted long.[1]Шаблон:Rp In 2005, the theater was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its architecture and its place in the area's history.[2]
