Colonial Theater, Allentown PA- Urban Exploration Walking Tour

In 2002, my friend and I climbed through a window of the condemned Colonial Theater in Allentown PA and attempted to tape as much of it as we could. The theater was in ruins, completely unstable and riddled with asbestos, but we managed to get creepy footage of the offices upstairs and the projection room, as well as a small glimpse of what was left of the theater itself (though that part is basically too dark to see.)

The noose in the stairwell is real, probably put there by kids who use to get drunk and high inside...it also appears that a squatter had taken up residence at the bottom of a stairwell, the same stairwell with the noose...)

Some of the pictures here were used without consent, I hope that doesn't offend anyone. I used them to help me express the sheer wonder and disappointment associated with a dilapidated building of this importance.

WOW sad to hear the theater was destroyed (taken down) and no one did anything to save (restore) it. This building should have became a piece of history.. I also want to add that the info about it being closed since 1982 is incorrect and I am sure of that because in 1984 I saw the movie Breaking there.. Again, so sad to hear its demolition.. Just found out about the demolition because I been away from Allentown since 1992.. I love and miss Allentown...
