Polk Street at Night
Closed in the mid-70s, the Paramount Theater on the corner of Polk Street and Ninth represents a piece of nostalgia for many Amarillo residents since it was the premier first-run theater in town for over 40 years. As part of the ongoing downtown revitalization project through Center City and the Amarillo Historical Preservation Foundation, the Paramount sign was given a facelift two years ago through their “Buy a Bulb” fundraiser. 850 light bulbs later, the landmark lights up the Amarillo skyline each night, bringing back old memories for some and creating new ones for others.
