Description
Celebrating its 100 birthday this year, the Hi-Pointe Theatre in St Louis, Missouri, is the oldest still operating movie palace in the St Louis metropolitan area.
When constructed in 1922, the Hi-Pointe was unique from other theatres of its time since it was built to show movies with a nice large screen and not designed for vaudeville acts or plays.
Still showing both new releases and classic films, the theater is frequently voted as a St. Louis favorite. It is located on the 1926-32 alignment of historic Route 66 (McCausland Avenue) in St Louis’s Hi-Pointe neighborhood.
