Grand Riviera Theatre, 9222 Grand River Avenue, Detroit, Wayne County, MI
Summary
Significance: The Grand Riviera is a representative example of a large neighborhood moving picture theatre of the mid-1920s. The octagonal corner entrance tower is a distinctive feature of the exterior, and the "atmospheric," or outdoor effect of the auditorium, a popular novelty of the period, is a freely romanticized representation of a Mediterranean garden.
