Here is a recent photo of what remains of the Ohio Theater.

The only remaining part of this theater is the marquee and the vertical OHIO. The signs rest on a very small storefront, and the building is small enough to serve as an island for Louisville’s free downtown trolley service. The south side of the building has a trompe d'oeil marquee painted on it, hawking ‘Intolerance’ by D.W. Griffith, a native Louisvillian.

Chuck….The first link that you reposted works fine, but the second one doesn’t. Its not a problem because you can access the other photos from the first link.

Hi Chuck….When I click either of those links, I get this message:

“Sign in to Flickr using
your flickr.com account
Or, take the Flickr pill if:
You signed up for Flickr before August 15, 2005. (You must be old skool. Rock On.)

You haven’t merged your Flickr account with a Yahoo! ID. (You might want to bookmark this.)

You have a Flickr account, but don’t use Yahoo!“.

I have no idea what that means. I thought they were trying to sell me something. :)

Chuck1231 on May 17, 2006 at 6:14 pm

LM both links worked for me, but your link is a different shot than either of those that I posted.

lostmemory on May 17, 2006 at 6:03 pm

Above links don’t seem to work so I’m posting this one. Hope its not the same photo. Here is a photo of the Ohio theater in Louisville.
