Information for this tour was contributed by Daniel Gibbs. The "big" house of South Baltimore, the McHenry opened in 1917 and closed in 1971. The ex-lobby space has been a McDonalds, a Thai restaurant, and is now shuttered, but the gigantic, 1200-seat auditorium is still around. The seats were removed and, recently, it was occupied by an indoor sports venue, which was a brief success but an ultimate failure. This is a newly-fashionable section of the city ... it wouldn't take much to get this beautiful old movie palace back into service. The plasterwork, proscenium arch, interior domes and even some of the old lighting fixtures are still intact, though painted out in black.
