Every Picture Tells a Story: 11/13/09

The Vic Theatre now serves mainly as a concert venue--I've seen Ladytron and Liz Phair there--but it was for many years a movie house (and still is a few nights a week, for its popular "Brew & View," which shows a combination of second-run movies and older fare).

The Vic's origins are still faintly visible on the north side of the building from the Belmont CTA platform; the words "PHOTO PLAYS" are just barely legible.
