The Orpheum Theatre is a performance venue in the Civic Center district. Designed by architect B. Marcus Priteca, it opened in 1926. The facade was patterned after a 12-century French cathedral. The Orpheum is a Locally Designated San Francisco Landmark by the San Francisco Landmarks Preservation Advisory Board.

Beautiful and fresh take on this landmark!!! I wonder how many theaters across America used the name!!!!
Thanks Noble! There’s an Orpheum here in Vancouver, built in the late 1920s.
