.............. ..............................................Baltimore's old Harlem Movie Theater  - Serving as a church once again.

The Harlem was one of West Baltimore's most popular movie houses for years. Just north of Edmondson Avenue on Gilmore Street, the theatre was built out of a converted church. It survived well into the 1970's, and after it closed, it was once again put to church use. The building looks great to this day, and faces Harlem Park. The Harlem was one of those theatres that liked to advertise in local papers with large ads.
