Fox Theater Lounge

Details

DescriptionMidway between the first floor and the balcony, with approaches from either stairway, is a lounge that undoubtedly will be used as a meeting place for theater parties. The entrances are beautified by draperies 'Sheinies Brothers' material, and the applique motif is repeated. Drapes of corresponding design are hung at the windows which line the east exposure of the room. Davenports, large chairs, tables and lamps are gracefully placed to give the greatest amount of comfort. A carpet of solid russet color is set off with deep borders of blue and black.'
