Abandoned Capitol Theater (Manila) at Capitol Theater (Manila)

The Capitol Theater is an Art deco theater in Manila, Philippines. It was built during the 1930s along Escolta Street, part of the city's primary commercial district, together with the Lyric Theater. It was designed with a double-balcony by National Artist Juan Nakpil and was considered a rare feat during that era.
The theater accommodates 800 seats in its air-conditioned double-balcony interior.

The theater closed because of the declining theater business in Manila. The beginning of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) construction caused the theater-goers to choose cinema theaters inside the newly opened air-conditioned malls.at Escolta Street
