LARGE THEATRE
 NOW BUILT FOR
 FAIRBANKS MEN

San Francisco is to have new moving picture house. Herbert L., 7othchild and Herman Wobber, for
 -ly of Fairbanks, Alaska, who havc Inflated their interests in the Cali fornia, Imperial and Portola theatres, -iiiounoe the erection of one of tiiii. most magnificent theatres in the
 nited States. The cost will be s1,OOO, ,OOO.
 This theatre is to be erected al
 arket and Jones Sts., and Gold Gate Ave-, on a portion of the Prager site, and is to have seating capacity greater than any theatre on the Pacific coast. It is to be con- structed in accordance with a com 'letely developed Spanish renaissance scheme in color and design and is to be known as the Granada theatre.
 The comfort and convenience of the patrons is to be one of the out standing features of this play house. The ground floor of the auditorium will seat in excess of 2,000 and in addition there will be a mezzanine on which box seats will be located, the position and arrangement of which will permit of ease and lux ury surpassing all previous accom- plishments in this direction and in effect totally different from anything heretofore devised in any theatre. In addition the balcony will lend itself 10 unusual advantages. Every pos sible comfort and convenience of the patron will be provided for the great size of the lot permitting this without crowding.
 NEW CONSTRUCTION IDEA.
 No expense is to be spared in the furnishings, decorations and drapes and new ideas in construction and .ecaontation are be utilized.
 Alfred Henry Jacobs is the archi- tSCI Ol tlilS utW eulllCc, dliu lIle p1dIS a.e well advanced.
 It is the intention that the Granada theatre will be operated under the management of Jack Burlington and Eugene Roth, which is in itself a guarantee of the class of productions that will most appeal to the San
 rancisco public.
 Unusal attention is to be paid to the stage, which will be amply large to house prologues and spectacles ir- respective of size, the extreme depth being 51 feet.
 It is difficult to realize the enor- nous scale upon which this theatre is to be constructed except by com parisons. The seating capacity will be fifty per cent as great as the Civic Auditorium and nearly twice as great as any other theatre in San .''.ancisco.
