Located at the corner of Commerce and Tenth Streets, the Majestic opened in 1911. The theatre closed in 1953 and was demolished in 1970. Any further information would be appreciated.

A 1940s view of the Majestic Theatre in Fort Worth. It was either on or near the location of the old Trailways Bus station.

Prior to the run-up to the construction of the convention center, someone tried to revive this theatre as a movie house. However, it appeared that they were unable to go up against the booking power of Interstate and Trans-Texas Theatres (who ran the other downtown theatres) and were only able to book less than stellar first-run pictures—pictures that were playing in the neighborhood theatres. This experiment didn’t last long!
