History
[ edit ]
Built in 1917 as a Shriner's Temple at a cost of $150,000,[3] Exotic Revival style, looking much like an Islamic temple, by architect T. Patterson Ross . Upon opening, the June 1917 edition of Architect and Engineer [4]
After the Alcazar Theatre at 260 O'Farrell Street closed on December 31, 1961, and then demolished, this former temple on Geary Street became a legitimate theatre in 1976 and took on the name Alcazar.[5]
The structure was gutted in 1982 after attempts to salvage it failed. It reopened in 1993.[6] Union Square , in the city's theatre district, the Alcazar has been renovated.[7]
The Alcazar Theatre was listed as a San Francisco Designated Landmark in 1989.
