Combined theater and hotel buildings were less common than stand-alone playhouses, which sets this Richmond, Virginia, subject apart from the usual theater views on the board. The record places it among the architectural and engineering drawings in the Library of Congress collection, a group of sheets that recorded how buildings were planned and constructed. Mixing a playhouse with lodging let a downtown building serve touring companies and out-of-town visitors under one roof. A drawing like this typically shows how the stage, public spaces and guest rooms were meant to fit together.
