Abstract
Description
Built by the Shriner's Salaam Temple in 1925 at a cost of more than $2 million and known then as the Mosque Theater, the four-story building houses the 3,500-seat Sarah Vaughan Concert Hall -- one of the state's largest theaters -- and has been used as a cultural center since it was leased from the city in 1965.
Symphony Hall's interior features a combination of Greek and Egyptian motifs, marble columns, a crystal chandelier, gold-leaf fretwork, and two-columned side promenades.
