Bridge Theater
3010 Geary Boulevard at Blake Street
San Francisco, California

Opened: July 21, 1939

Supposedly named in honor of the recently-constructed Golden Gate Bridge, the Bridge used to show mainstream movies. Now it stays viable as a premier venue for independent and foreign films.

Attilio A. Zerga was responsible for the Bridge's wonderful art deco decor. The vertical sign and marquee are original, but the theater has gone through a number of renovations over the years, with the box office moving away from its original center position.

Thanks to Jack Tillmany for all the information!
