BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Designed by Ernest Runtz and built to replace a large section of the the East side of Pelham Place after its demolition in 1898-99. The Marine Palace of Varieties was believed to be the first theatre in the country with a cantilever balcony so as not to need pillars that would block the audience's view. The building later became the Royal Cinema de Luxe, and the balcony survived until the late 1960s when the cinema was converted into today’s leisure complex. The upper part of the building was converted into a Bingo Club and much of the attractive Neo-Baroque interior was altered. Please explore my ebay shop for more antique prints.
