Chicago's Uptown Theatre, one of America's largest and most lavish movie palaces, has sat vacant for more than 40 years. For decades, few people have been let inside--to experience its grand lobby, its sweeping staircase, or its massive theater auditorium. The Uptown: Chicago's Endangered Movie Palace gathers the work of a dozen contemporary photographers with vintage blueprints, renderings, programs, and classic photographs to tell the story of one of America's jewels.
