Rex Theatre opened November 1937, the building was originally a furniture store. The theatre was open until the mid-1970’s. Once the theatre closed the building went through several renovations, but to date has not been reopened.

Here is a 2009 photo of the Rex.
The Rex was operated by Paramount and then by ABC Mid South. Looks like it was used for concerts during the 1980’s from the AC photo. From the latest photo link that LM posted it looks like the exterior has been restored.

Can somebody please put up some information about the Pen and Florida theatres in Pensacola. Being stationed there in 1959-60, 1964-1965 and then again in the 80’s I visited these theatres many times besides the Saenger.
