Beschreibung:

Seattle's nautically themed Admiral Theater was designed by architects B. Marcus Priteca and A.B Heinsbergen. It is now a second-run cinema.

A 1973 remodel into a "twin" cinema removed the marquee and a mast and "crow's nest" and changed the old balcony into new projection booths. However, the lobby decoration is generally intact, as is the overall structure.

Like several other early Seattle cinemas (including the one that now survives as the Columbia City Theater), the auditorium ran parallel to the street rather than at a right angle, so that seen from the street the building is "wide" rather than "deep"; several stores are nestled between the auditorium and the street.

The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places with ID #89002098.
