The Marquette Movie Theatre building on West 63rd Street at South Kedzie Avenue. (Gone.) Chicago Illinois USA. March 1986., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.

I took this now historic photograph in Chicago's Marquette Park neighborhood, way back in March of 1986.

Time was now running out for the old Marquette movie theatre building at the southeast corner of West 63rd Street and South Kedzie Avenue at the time of this photograph.

The movie theatre had closed during the early 1980's, the building was in a state of defered maintenance and neglect, and now the business tenants were recieving eviction notices.

This building was eventually demolished in August of 1987.

Thanks.
