Why it's on the map
On February 16, 2004, after 80 years of operation, the Alexandria Theater closed permanently.
Since its closure in 2004, the Alexandria has remained vacant, and has deteriorated.
The Alexandria Theater opened on November 26, 1923, and was designed by the architecture firm Reid & Reid, who built landmarks such as the Cliff House, Fairmont Hotel and Spreckels Temple of Music.
Despite its history and architectural importance, the Alexandria has not been granted San Francisco Designated Landmark status.
