- Description:
- Interior view of the 4-story lobby at the Michigan Theater on Bagley Street in Detroit, Michigan. The theater opened in 1925 and closed in 1976. "The 4,038-seat Michigan Theatre was the only theater by famous Chicago architects Rapp & Rapp in the city of Detroit ... the theater was connected to the Bagley Avenue Building (now called the Michigan Building), the theater was extremely detailed, from its auditorium to its four-story lobby, complete with columns, paintings and sculptures imported from Europe ... the theater had to be carved into a parking garage because studies on the building showed it would endanger the soundness of the adjoining office building, because of this, much of the theater remains today, such as its ticket booth, four-story lobby, proscenium arch, part of the upper balcony, and even the red curtain," from The Buildings of Detroit website.

- Description:
- View of the stage area and part of the audience at Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor, Michigan, designed by architect, Albert Kahn and opened in 1913, the building underwent renovations in 2003. "His {Kahn] experiences at Bologna proved invaluable when designing the brickwork of the Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor, a rich veneer of brick and tile provided a contrasting frame for the monumental stone colonnade of the entrance facade, here classical formality prevailed, but not without a considerable freedom in the handling of the details ... on the interior a parabolic plan with the speaker's stand at the focal point assured the maximum in acoustical advantages," from "The Buildings of Detroit: A History," by W. Hawkins Ferry.
