Woods Theatre

The Woods was designed in the grand style of movie palaces of the early 20th century by the firm Marshall and Fox, which also designed such still-extant Chicago structures as the Blackstone Theatre (later renamed the Merle Reskin Theatre) and the Drake Hotel.

The facade of the Woods Theatre and its marquee can be seen in the parade scene of the 1986 film Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
