Here is a photo I took of the Imperial in 1989.
I remember visiting this marvelous theatre a number of times in the late 1970s and early 1980s when it was used as one of the venues for Serge Losique’s Montreal World Film Festival.
This theatre designed by Albert E. Westover is currently closed for additional restoration (Oct 2003).
