Palace Theatre - Georgetown, Texas - a photo on Flickriver

The Williamson County Courthouse Historic District in Georgetown, Texas, is an unspoiled, coherent and intact area composed primarily of two-story limestone structures of Victorian commercial design. Although the buildings range in date and style from those of the first permanent constructions to the present-day restylings and replacements, the majority are considered originals. And the variety and contrast of styles is such that each of the four blocks facing the Square has buildings which give each side a character of its own, although within the blocks and from one block to another, there are enough features in common to afford a certain pleasing coherence. One of these buildings is the Palace Theatre that was constructed circa the 1930's. It is a two-story, three-bay stuccoed building with Art Deco motifs. It originally opened as a 'moving picture' theatre showing silent films before eventually progressing to 'talkies'. Today the restored theatre operates as a non-profit Community Performing Arts facility with movies dropped from the programming in 2012.

On July 26, 1977, the Williamson County Courthouse Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places and included the Palace Theatre. All the information above and more about the entirety of the district can be found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be found here:

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D5200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
