The Eureka Theater at 612 F Street is an Art Moderne cinema built in 1939, its streamlined curves and neon signage sitting in deliberate contrast to the Victorian buildings around it. The theater has been in near-continuous operation since opening, and its vertical blade sign and original facade are among the best-preserved examples of 1930s movie-house design on the California coast.
The interior has been restored and the theater still hosts films and occasional live performances. Even if nothing is showing, the exterior is worth a stop on any walk through Old Town. The neon is best seen in the early evening as the fog comes in.
