1938 Packard Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Atlantic City used to be cluttered with ornate buildings like this. This one? It used to be a theater and now its facade stands as part of a casino.

The theater facade itself is mostly the aforementioned French Baroque. The surrounding is a generically bland "Western False Front" that borrows heavily on French Colonial elements. It's absolutely fucking hideous.

Be sure to take the picture from the street. I want to drink in as much of it as I can, but no so much that it doesn't fill the frame. Edited June 22, 2018 by scoobdog
