This ink drawing shows the Strand theater on Washington Street near 10th Street in Hoboken, New Jersey, a building also recorded under the name Gayety theater. Dated 1929, it is part of the Library of Congress's architectural, design and engineering drawings, which preserve how buildings were planned and laid out. The 1920s saw neighborhood movie houses like this one multiply in American cities as film drew large crowds, and Hoboken's dense streetscape made a theater on a busy commercial corridor a familiar sight for local residents.
