Alhambra Theater

Alhambra Theater (later, The Grove Theatre)

Van Wagoner brothers built this silent movie theater in 1927 in a Spanish Revival style, the first and only distinctly Spanish architecture in town. The top-half of the building is stuccoed and a dark modeled brick lower-half create a contrast. A center top portion features a front-sloping red tile roof. Between the tile roof and the marquee is a row of recessed arches. Flanking the center portion are two higher square columned parapets with decorative arched brick center cornices creating a symmetry. The two side-fronts have recessed arches matching the center arches. Wrought iron balconies decorate the side arches.

Located at 20 South Main Street in Pleasant Grove on historic Main Street.
