Baltimore has several of the more interesting movie houses, but it's the
Ambassador Theatre which is perhaps the most interesting to see. The Art
Deco theater commands the block, and while it hasn't been a movie theater
for years, it still shines in the grace it once had. Check out Kilduffs Quick Directory here at our new Tagpage. |

| The Ambassador has
in recent years, been used as a church, a beauty school, and again
as a church. The theater was built in the mid 1930's, and it's opening helped
shut down the Gwynn
across the street. The Ambassador is a real gem of a building, and
the exterior has survived the years quite well |
