The Streamline Moderne 4th Avenue Theater was built in 1947 and was a first run movie house for the next four decades. When it opened, the opulent theater seated a combined 1,100 patrons in its balcony and main floor.

In the mid-1980’s, the city of Anchorage began restoring the theater and, later, it was taken over by the catering firm, Glacial Reflections. The company used it as a banquet and special events venue that fits between 500-700 people. It has been shuttered for several years and is scheduled for demolition in 2022 - Notes by Jack Van Leer.
