The Granada Theater has been well preserved and features a huge and towering vertical “Granada” sign. It now functions as a popular concert venue.

A photo of the Granada Theatre was featured in an ad for Texlite porcelain enamel products appearing in the March 2, 1946, issue of Boxoffice Magazine. The ad named the architect of the Granada as Raymond F. Smith.
This is another 2009 photo.
Here is a September 2009 photo.
Had it not been for this theater in the 70’s, I would never have been able to see some of the great classics of Hollywood’s golden age in new 35mm prints – wonderful management, great sound and projection. Video, of course, killed off the market for revival houses, but the upside is I now own most of those films! Oh, well, at least the building survives. I wish it well.
When the Granada Theatre opened in 1946 it was operated by Isley Theatres and United Artists took over in 1969. The Granada Theatre closed in 2001 from what I found.

Lived in Dallas in 1978-79 and I was introduced to Foreign films and other movies such as Clockwork Orange. One of the Movie Gems. Go to see the Granada still open.
