A person
taking a stroll around Grand Circus Park may very well
miss one of its most notable landmarks. Hidden behind
the Fine Arts Building sits the long-vacant Adams Theater.
An example of the rare "alley-jumper" style
of theater, the Adams was the second large movie theater
on the park and an important member of the city's theater
district.
Unfortunately
time has not been kind to neither the Adams or Fine
Arts. Remodeling in the 60s and being triplexed in the
80s robbed the auditorium of much of its original design.
Time and vandalism have furthered the damage. Thus currently
its future as part of the downtown theater district
remains uncertain.
