English: Picture of the Garden Theater located at 12 West North Avenue in the Central Northside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on July 17, 2010. Built in 1915, and designed by architect Thomas H. Scott. Architectural style: Art Deco. Financed by David E. Park, a steel-industry scion and banker.[1] According to a 14-page Historical American Buildings Survey data sheet from 1978, "motion picture theaters became more substantial and dignified than the earlier Nickelodeons. The Garden Theater is a typical little-changed neighborhood movie house of this century's second decade."[2] Bennett Amdursky managed the theater from the time it opened, purchased it from Park's son in 1924, and ran it until his death in 1970. The theater "became the pride of his life," the historical survey states. "He worked at the theatre daily until his death in the spring of 1970, over a half-century later."[3] After he died, things changed. In 1973, the pornographic film Deep Throat played there, and did quite well, and soon after the Garden became known as an adult movie theater. It was a porno theater for 34 years thereafter, until it closed in 2007. Now the city of Pittsburgh is trying to revitalize this historic area, and there are plans to restore this classic theater. On the day this picture was taken, the block was made to look "seedy" again for the filming of the movie One for the Money starring Katherine Heigl. Filming is scheduled to begin at this location on Wednesday, July 21, 2010.[4] The Garden Theater is on the List of City of Pittsburgh historic designations.
