Lincoln Theatre, Historic Art Deco theater on Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, Florida
This 1936 Art Deco building features a rounded corner facade, horizontal canopies, and a prominent marquee that reflects Miami Beach's signature architectural style from the era.
Designed by renowned theater architect Thomas W. Lamb and opened in 1936, the building served as a movie palace for decades before closing in the 1980s.
After operating as a cinema through the mid-20th century, the building was transformed in 1989 into a concert hall for the New World Symphony until 2011.
The building now houses retail spaces including a flagship store, maintaining its exterior Art Deco features while adapting to modern commercial use on pedestrianized Lincoln Road.
The theater hosted notable film premieres including Ben-Hur in 1959 and underwent complete interior transformations twice, from cinema to concert hall to retail space.
