902 South Linwood Avenue  Baltimore City, Maryland  ( Southeast Baltimore ) Opened : 1910's Closed by 1950's Seated under 500 Seems to have been razed

Back in the 1980's, the area around the Linwood Theatre had yet to become "part of Canton", and the Linwood Theatre looked bad. The theatre was quite a sight back in the day and operated from the 1910's to the 1950's, with the marquee and entranceway attached to the building just to the left in the photo. The building appears to have been a warehouse for some time, and seems to be a office now. The photo below shows that the building had been doing very well, in an area that  has sky rocketed in real estate values, but a visit in 2011 found it appears a newer building is on the site, with the Linwood having been razed.                                                                                                         1980's T.

The Linwood Theatre as it appears today. In an area known as Canton, the neighborhood  has seen seen property values surge, and those buildings that were in poor repair have been fixed up, which included the Linwood. The building still has the three diamond windows in place, which helps set it off from those other buildings in the block. 2003 T.
