Garden Theater

The Garden Theater (or Garden Theatre) is a 1,000-seat theater that was built in 1915〔 at 12 West North Avenue in the Central Northside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Formerly a movie theater, it closed in 2007〔 and has not been in use much since that time, except for a scene in the movie adaptation of ''One for the Money'' starring Katherine Heigl filmed in July 2010.〔(North Side theater is X-rated — for Hollywood ), by Bill Vidonic, ''Pittsburgh Tribune-Review''. 2010-07-16. Retrieved 2010-08-11.〕 The city of Pittsburgh hopes to revitalize the theater, and it was placed on the List of City of Pittsburgh historic designations by Pittsburgh City Council on March 25, 2008.
==History==
Built in 1915, and designed by architect Thomas H. Scott and financed by David E. Park, a steel-industry scion and banker,〔 the Garden Theater exhibits an Beaux Arts style. According to a 14-page Historical American Buildings Survey data sheet from 1978, "motion picture theaters became more substantial and dignified than the earlier Nickelodeons. The Garden Theater is a typical little-changed neighborhood movie house of this century's second decade."〔 Bennett Amdursky managed the theater from the time it opened, purchased it from Park's son in 1924, and ran it until his death in 1970. The theater "became the pride of his life," the historical survey states. "He worked at the theatre daily until his death in the spring of 1970, over a half-century later."〔 After he died, things changed. In 1973, the pornographic film Deep Throat played there, and did quite well, and soon after the Garden became known as an adult movie theater.〔 It was a porno theater for 34 years thereafter, until it closed in 2007.〔 Now the city of Pittsburgh is trying to revitalize this historic area, and there are plans to restore this classic theater. The Garden Theater is on the List of City of Pittsburgh historic designations.〔
