Elgin Theater- Toronto, CA
Built in 1913, Elgin Theater is one half of the last surviving Edwardian stacked theaters in the world. Designed by Thomas W. Lamb for American entertainment magnate Marcus Loew, the complex was built to showcase vaudeville acts: the Elgin (originally called Loew's Yonge Street) was intended to be the work horse, featuring continuous acts daily, to patrons of modest means.
