This lovely old theatre was built in 1947 and is in danger of being torn down. Inside, there are beautiful art deco trappings and elements, including floor-to-ceiling bronze murals. Here's a blurb I found on-line:

"Listed on the Anchorage Walking tour, and one of the oldest buildings in downtown Alaska (circa 1947), this 4th Avenue Theatre was created to be a "comfortable movie palace." Completely refurnished in 1992 to its original splendor, it is a conglomeration of floor to ceiling bronze murals and marble decor with an extensive collection of Alaskan history. The location is worth visiting for its historical properties alone, to say nothing of its theatrical and cinematic offerings."

I snapped this photo while driving up 4th Avenue, but I plan to actually walk over and get more shots inside and out.
