The Majestic Bay
The Majestic Bay Theater, built in 1914 in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, was the oldest continuously operating movie theater in the United States prior to its closure in 1997.[1] In 1998, it was renovated and transformed from a bargain single-screen theater to a well-appointed triplex.A cigarette dropped in a standpipe in the adjacent parking lot started a fire in its East wall (just before a showing) in 1970 and could have been the theater's end had it happened when the theater was unoccupied, but the fire was quickly and successfully put out by the Ballard fire department before any significant damage occurred.The rebuilt theater of 1998 adopted both the former "Majestic" and its later "Bay" names to become the "Majestic Bay Theater".This article about a building or structure in the U.S. state of Washington is a stub.
