The Broadway Theatre was one of the big four Fells Point Movie Theatres, which included the Leader, Cluster and the Apex. The building has a look of a medieval castle and opened in 1916. Elaborate brownstone and copper facade, which was painted over over in brown and green.

When the movies ended in 1978, it became a restaurant that is doing a booming business as the Latin Palace. The neighborhood is now a lively Hispanic section of the city.

Just to see the opulence the theatre once had is worth a visit today. No mistaking that it was once a great place to see a movie.
