The Lincoln theater and Lincoln Hall stood on Hackensack Plank Road near Bergen Line Avenue in Union City, New Jersey, and this ink drawing dates to 1929. Its catalog record places it among the architectural and engineering drawings held by the Library of Congress's Prints and Photographs Division, so it records a building plan or elevation rather than a view of the street. Union City sits across the Hudson from Manhattan and grew quickly in the 1920s, when motion pictures were becoming a central form of entertainment and many neighborhood theaters were built to serve nearby residents. The drawing shows how a building of that era was designed on paper before construction.
