The news: It was rebranded it as the United Theatre on Broadway by the new operators in February 2024. Ace's deal was done at the end of January and with their exit the 'Theatre at Ace Hotel' name, adopted in 2014, was retired. The new hotel name is Stile DTLA by Kasa, a brand with more limited service, what they call "tech-enabled hospitality."
Opening: The United Artists opened December 26, 1927 with "My Best Girl," a silent film starring Mary Pickford and Buddy Rogers. A prologue and several shorts preceded the feature including "Comrades," filmed in color. Photo: Bill Counter - February 2024
The UA closed as a film house in 1989. The reopening of the office building as the Ace Hotel was in January 2014 with the theatre, renamed The Theatre at Ace Hotel, following a month later. In February 2024 it became the United Theatre following Ace's exit.

Architect: C. Howard Crane designed the theatre, Walker and Eisen were the building architects. Walker and Eisen (along with Clifford Balch) did a number of other theatres for the circuit in an early 30s building program that included the United Artists theatres in Long Beach, Inglewood, Pasadena and East Los Angeles as well as the Four Star on Wilshire Blvd.
C. Howard Crane, who designed over 300 theatres, also did two other theatres for the United Artists Theatre Circuit with similar Spanish Gothic interiors. In Detroit (2,070 seats) it was much like the Los Angeles building, with a full stage and the theatre integrated into an office building. In Chicago (1,703 seats), the United Artists was a re-do of an earlier theatre and ended up being a smaller version and lacking a stage. Crane, based in Detroit, designed hundreds of theatres including the St. Louis Fox and most of the major theatres in Detroit including Orchestra Hall, the Capitol/Grand Circus Theatre (now the Detroit Opera House) and the Fox.
The Gothic style was evidently chosen because of Mary Pickford's love of European castles. Chaplin, another of the UA principals, wasn't enthusiastic about United Artists operating theatres -- he thought they should stick to making movies.
A rendering of the building in the Los Angeles Public Library collection. This was an early version -- there were some changes before construction. The drawing made an appearance with a December 25, 1926 Exhibitors Herald article that proclaimed "Construction Ready to Start on Coast Theatre for U.A." They noted that ground would be broken immediately -- but it didn't happen for another ten weeks. The article promised an opulent structure with a $100,000 refrigeration plant, a fully equipped stage with a "great switchboard" and a main curtain of "special design."
This ground floor plan appeared in the July 1928 issue of Architect and Engineer. The page, also with a lobby shot, can be seen on Internet Archive. The issue also has a facade view and a lobby ceiling detail. Plus there's "United Artists Theatre Los Angeles," an article that has outer lobby and auditorium photos.
Seating: Originally 2,214 including a mezzanine. The mezzanine was hacked off during the 1955 TODD-AO conversion. Motion Picture News
noted that the mezzanine sat 200. A 1979 L.A. Times article about
Metropolitan Theatres listed the capacity as 1,704. Current capacity is
1,647 with 762 fixed seats on the main floor plus space for 63 loose
chairs. The balcony seats 822.
Stage: 26' 9" deep with a 46' proscenium. The stage rigging installation and lifts were by Peter Clark
of New York City. The Frank Adam Company did the stage switchboard.
Pipe Organ: A 3/27 Wurlitzer. It was removed in 1955. Life had an article about the organ on August 24, 1962.
The
groundbreaking was done March 5, 1927 with a crowd estimated at
5,000 due to the appearance of Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and John
Barrymore. In this photo from the Los Angeles Public Library collection Mary is leading the band as part of the proceedings. Fairbanks was quoted in the L.A. Times as saying he hoped
the theatre "will always be a reminder of the fact that Los Angeles is
the center of production of the film industry."
"Host of Elaborate Construction Features Seen" was a heading with this lobby rendering (and one of the auditorium) on page 13 of the Better Theatres section of the December 24, 1927 Exhibitors Herald. An article in the same issue titled "Spanish Motif in United Artists Theatre" noted that it "will be a magnificent structure which will incorporate all of the best features of the most recently built theatres plus some additional ones..." Thanks to Mike Hume for finding the Herald articles on Internet Archive. Visit the page about the theatre on his Historic Theatre Photography site for many fine photos as well as tech information.
A pre-opening ad for the "Gorgeous Premiere." Thanks to Ken McIntyre for finding it for the Facebook page Photos of Los Angeles. Carli Elinor of the Carthay Circle Theatre was the musical director. At least for opening night. His orchestra was augmented by an offstage choir for the opening. After the big premiere it was just films and music for about nine months. Then prologues were added in an attempt to boost business.
A photo of Mary Pickford from the program. The full program appears lower on this page. Thanks, Ron!
A cut-away drawing of the United Artists that appeared in the L.A. Times. Thanks to Larry Harnisch for reproducing it on his blog The Daily Mirror.
The new theatre was profiled in an article in the January 7, 1928 issue of Motion Picture News. It's on Internet Archive. The article declared that it was "the final word in theatre construction" and offered many details:
A cutout of the theatre made an appearance in a store window. The photo appeared in the January 21, 1928 Motion Picture News. Thanks to Escott O. Norton for finding it on Internet Archive. The caption: "An attractive window display which figured in the campaign featuring the new United Artists theatre in Los Angeles. The advance exploitation for this opening was as thorough as that which features some special picture productions. The Mary Pickford vehicle 'My Best Girl' was tied-in with the drive."
Chris Rini comments: "The grand piano is a Knabe Ampico, and the two advertising Ampico dealers in the 1927 City Directory are Southern California Music Co. on Broadway and Fitzgerald Music on Hill." Based on the style of the marquee reflected in the window it appears that the display was at Fitzgerald, 729 S. Hill. They were right next door to the Alhambra Theatre. The title we see reflected could be "The Love Mart," a December 1927 release with Billie Dove and Gilbert Roland.
Although the operation started out with West Coast Theatres managing, the ads for the United Artists were usually separate from the main West Coast ad. For a while many said "direction West Coast Theatres" and then in the Spring of 1928 that stopped. By March UA had brought in Dr. Hugo Riesenfeld to oversee the presentations. A small item in the Variety issue of March 21, 1928 noted that Reisenfeld "has assumed his new position as director general of United Artists theatres..."
One ad mentioned a "Symphonic Musical Program" under his supervision. Others said "Programs supervised by Hugo Riesenfeld." Soon the typeface got bigger and the ads were saying "Direction Hugo Riesenfeld" and "Entire Program Under Personal Direction Hugo Riesenfeld." It's unknown if West Coast Theatres was still involved in the day-to-day operations during this period.
Riesenfeld was the man who was music director at the Rialto in New York when Roxy was manager -- and succeeded him when Roxy left, getting the management job at the Rivoli and Criterion as well. At this time United Artists had put him in charge of their presentations at their Detroit and Chicago Theatres as well. He was also doing film scoring for United Artists between 1928 and 1930. Riesenfeld was profiled in an April 15, 1928 L.A. Times article titled "Screen Vaudeville Needed." The UA ads still had him as director as late as May 1928.
Talkies arrive: The first sound film to play the theatre was "The Man Who Laughs" in August 1928. The Universal release, based on the Victor Hugo novel, starred Mary Philbin and Conrad Veidt. Basically a silent film, it had a Western Electric track of recorded music and sound effects.
"Because... She has grown up!" - An ad for the Mary Pickford talkie "Coquette" that premiered at the end of March 1929.
In an early widescreen experiment the UA ran "The Bat Whispers" in 1931. The UA is being advertised as "A Publix Theatre." Thanks to Ken McIntyre for finding the ad. This was a production in "Magnifilm" (filmed both in 35mm and 65mm versions) and the newspaper ad said "Twice the Size" but it's unknown if special projectors were installed for the run. Perhaps it was a 2 to 1 aspect ratio on a larger than normal screen. See the article "The Bat Whispers in 65mm" on the site In70mm.com for more about the film.
The terrible 30s: The theatre had a checkered history in the 30s with several closures and several different operators. Paramount Publix was still running it in early 1931 but by mid-year the Publix logo was no longer featured in the ads.
In December that year the ads advised that the theatre was under the "Direction of Harold B. Franklin." The UA was being advertised as having "The Most Important Pictures at Popular Prices." Franklin was a big guy with Fox West Coast who had quit to form (with Howard Hughes) the short-lived Hughes-Franklin circuit. Evidently this was his new job after the liquidation of that circuit. Franklin's name also appeared on the ads for the Paramount Theatre (the former Metropolitan), a house Fox West Coast had been previously been operating for Paramount Publix.
By January of 1932 Franklin's name was gone from the ads -- as were those words "Popular Prices." Now it was just "Home of Important Pictures." The last day of operation was March 20, 1932. The L.A. Times ad that day for the final film "The Greeks Had a Word For Them" (with Ina Claire) just said "Last Times Today."
A 1932 photo of the closed theatre with "Attend Loew's State" on the marquee. It's a detail from a Dick Whittington Studio photo in the USC Digital Library collection. An October 5, 1932 L.A. Times article "Reopening of Theater Announced" noted that it would be by Fox West Coast. The Times noted that "the policy of the house will establish it as one of the Southland's outstanding show places, it is said, with Fanchon and Marco stage productions and leading film features included in the forthcoming programs." They added that "The United Artists has been closed approximately six months."
An October 11 story mentioned that the re-opening film would be MGM's "Red Dust" with Jean Harlow and Clark Gable, scheduled for an October 20 date. The Pantages in Hollywood (run by Fox West Coast) had also been closed and would reopen with the same feature. In addition there would be the Fanchon & Marco "Mystery" Idea at the UA and a Fanchon & Marco produced tab version of the Ziegfeld hit "Whoopee" at the Pantages.
As the news dribbled out, an October 15 story revealed that both houses would be "under the personal direction of Sid Grauman," then also working for Fox at the Chinese. An October 17 story said there would be an "augmented orchestra" and listed several acts for the program. All this was interesting as the Fanchon & Marco stage shows, long a mainstay of the Fox West Coast operated Loew's State, had ended there on October 6, 1932 when the State went to a films-only policy.
The opening ads, a combined spread for both the UA and the Pantages, said "Direction Sid Grauman" in large lettering at the top -- and made no mention of Fox West Coast being involved. Another early 30s Grauman adventure downtown (during one of his many absences from the Chinese) had been in 1931 when he had the Mayan, which he called (of course) Grauman's Mayan. But there he was doing a season of legit shows, not movies. There was another brief closure of the United Artists in 1933 and then another reopening with the Walter Winchell film "Broadway Through a Keyhole," a November 1933 release.
In 1934 ads the United Artists was being called Grauman's United Artists. There was no longer any mention of stage shows with the features. The Hollywood Reporter had this UA ad for "Roman Scandals" and "I'm No Angel" in their January 5, 1934 issue. It's on Internet Archive.
Another 1934 ad for the theatre as Grauman's. They're offering free parking. Thanks to Ken McIntyre for finding this one. The Grauman name was soon dropped but Fox West Coast continued to run the theatre into the late 40s.
50s Consent Decree issues: As a result of the government anti-trust suit forcing the studios to divest themselves of their theatre holdings, UATC took over the operation of this theatre themselves in the 50s (along with the nearby Loew's State). Fox West Coast (newly separated from 20th Century Fox) had to part with the State because part of the deal was a requirement for them to sell off certain theatres in an attempt to provide a bit of competition.
During the 50s the United Artists frequently played day and date with other United Artists houses such as the Four Star and the Egyptian. Fox had run both prior to the consent decree, as well as a string of other UA houses built in the early 30s when Fox West Coast and United Artists were having a fight over a perceived lack of good dates for United Artists releases in Fox West Coast controlled theatres.
A 1954 or 1955 look toward the theatre. It's an Alan Weeks photo spotted by Monica Seitz Vega in the Metro Library and Archive on Flickr. Good bookings were scarce during this period as the business shifted to the westside. They're running "She Wolf," an Italian film.
A 1955 booking. Thanks to Ken McIntyre for finding the Times ad for a post on the Photos of Los Angeles Facebook page.
70mm arrives: TODD-AO came to the UA in 1955. This theatre was the second 70mm equipped theatre in Los Angeles. "Oklahoma!" (which continued its run at the Egyptian, the first theatre so equipped) began a 52 week run at the United Artists on December 24, 1955.
The remodeling for the process included knocking out some proscenium plaster for installation of a huge, deeply curved screen. Other work entailed removal of the mezzanine and construction of a new projection booth at the rear of the main floor.
"All freeways lead to Oklahoma!" The LA Times ad for "Oklahoma" that's shown here is reproduced on Michael Coate and William Kallay's 70mm in Los Angeles section of their great website From Script To DVD. It's on their United Artists page.
After the "Oklahoma" run, United Artists Theatre Circuit closed the theatre.
Later operation: In October 1961 UATC renamed it the Alameda Theatre and reopened it. That experiment with Mexican films only lasted until June 1962 when they closed it again and turned the theatre back to the building owner owner Joseph Schenck Productions.
At the end of the United Artists' movie days it was operated by Metropolitan Theatres under a master lease then held by the Needleman family, owners of the Western Costume Co. building to the south of the theatre as well as the nearby Orpheum Theatre, also then operated by Metropolitan. The United Artists finally closed as a film theatre in 1989.
From 1990 until 2010, the United Artists was used as church, the Los Angeles University Cathedral. The church purchased the building some years after a long period as a renter. During the years as a church, the formerly grubby theatre was cleaned and much of the former opulence was restored to the interior. The screening room in the basement used by Mary Pickford was used as the repository of the church's bible collection.
In Limbo: In 2010 the church moved their operations to another building in Glendale and placed the building on the market. Blogdowntown and Curbed L.A. both ran stories about the proposed sale. Hillsman Wright, of the Los Angeles Historic Theatre Foundation, announced a plan to bring the theatre back to life.
The LAHTF plan got a nice boost with an August 2010 story in the Wall Street Journal by Dennis Nishi: "Can L.A.'s Historic Theater District Be Revived?" The article included, without credit, this auditorium view by Wendell Benedetti.
The mission was discussed in more detail in an interview with Eric Richardson in an August 2010 post on Blogdowntown: "The Historic Theatre Dream on Broadway." More on the LAHTF and the theatre appeared in Los Angeles Downtown News: "To Protect and Restore. "One of the big signs that the church had placed atop the building in 1989 came down in 2011 for a journey to Glendale. Eric Richardson of BlogDowntown had the story: "Jesus Saves Neon No More at United Artists?" One sign still remains on the building.
The Ace Hotel takes over: The property became now an Ace Hotel with a refurbished theatre. The hotel opened January 6, 2014 with the theatre, then called The Theatre at Ace Hotel, following on February 14. Jason Diebler was the initial hotel manager.
A June 2014 Curbed L.A. story "How the Ace Hotel Empire Engineered Broadway's Speedy Yuppification" discussed the strategy that brought an influx of trendy new businesses into the area around the hotel. The theatre got a fine story and photo spread in a February 2014 Curbed L.A. story "Inside the New Ace Hotel's Dazzling Old United Artists Theatre."
The building had been sold in October 2011 to Greenfield Partners, a Norwalk, Connecticut based hotel developer and real estate concern. Designing the 2013-2014 renovation were Killefer Flammang Architects with Wade Killefer as the design principal and John Arnold as project manager. Overseeing the construction was another partner in the venture, Jon Blanchard of BLVD Hospitality and Voyager Hotel Group. Commune Design and the in-house Atelier Ace made the interior design decisions for the project.
A lobby view by Elizabeth Daniels appearing with "Here's Your First Look...," a January 8, 2014 Curbed L.A. article about the hotel's opening. Other stories and photo spreads about the hotel opening include those by Brigham Yen, on Eater L.A., L.A. Downtown News (+ an additional Gary Leonard photo spread), on the blog Hypebeast as well as on the Bringing Back Broadway Facebook page.
GQ got into the mix with a photo taken from the top of the Ace to lead its story "America's Next Great City is Inside L.A." Alex Calderwood, the founder of the Ace chain, passed away November 14, 2013 at age 47. The N.Y. Times had a story. Brad Wilson then became president of Ace Hotel Group.
On DTLA Rising Brigham Yen had run a November 2013 story about the rebirth of the building and the anticipated opening of the hotel. Curbed L.A. and Eater also had stories tracking the project. Kevin Roderick had an October 2011 story about the project on LA Observed. Also see the Curbed L.A.
December 2011 story. The building had been on the market since 2009
with an initial asking price of $15 million. With no takers, the price
gradually slid downward. The sale price was $11 million.
The building sells (twice again): Less than a year after the
opening, there were indications that Greenfield Partners wanted to cash
out. While their renovation costs are unknown, they suggested at the
time that $100 million might be a reasonable price tag for their
renovated property. Bethany Firnhaber had the December 2014 story "Ace in the Hole?..."
for the Los Angeles Business Journal. The article suggested that the
property could be upgraded further and Ace could be replaced by another
operator by paying an exit penalty on their contract.
Greenfield
did succeed in selling the building in 2015 for $103 million to a
Maryland real estate investment trust, Chesapeake Lodging Trust. Roger
Vincent had the May 1 story in the L.A. Times: "Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles sold...." The
Times got a quote from Chesapeake: "'The theater booking pace is up
considerably from its first year and will host over 100 events in 2015,'
said James L. Francis, Chesapeake’s chief executive. 'We estimate that
the theater alone will generate revenues in excess of $4.4 million and
net operating profit of over $2 million.'"
See Sandi Hemmerlein's 2015 story for Discover Los Angeles "Ace Hotel Downtown Los Angeles: The Story of an L.A. Icon" for a fine overview of the hotel and theatre. The restaurant, initially called L.A. Chapter, changed hands in late 2017 with Michael Cimarusti becoming chef. The new name, "Best Girl Bistro," was a nod to the Mary Pickford film that opened the theatre, "My Best Girl." The L.A. Times had the story. But that restaurant operation didn't last long either.
Building owner Cheasapeake Lodging Trust was acquired in 2019 by Parks Hotels & Resorts, Inc. In November 2019 they sold their interest to a then-unnamed purchaser. DTLA News discussed the transaction in their December 2019 story "Ace Hotel Sells for $117 Million." Ace continued to manage the hotel and theatre. In 2023, at the end of Ace's tenure, Dakota Gipson was their coordinator for the theatre. A 2024 Real Deal story noted that the building's owner is now the Korean hospitality company Aju Continuum, headed by Yoonwhe Leo Moon.
New operators: Ace left the building at the end of January 2024 and with their exit the 'Theatre at Ace Hotel' name was retired. Thanks to Vlad Viceroy for spotting the news about Ace's exit. SF Gate had a December 12 story. The Times followed up with "The Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles is closing its doors in January."
Since February 2024 it's been the United Theatre on Broadway and has new operators. Stacey Levine, who has been general manager under Ace since 2020, continues in that capacity. Serena Fortier is assistant GM, Reba Alexander runs boxoffice, Eric Hinojosa is operations manager, Monica Heinz does food and beverage, Fe Bernardo does finance, Dakota Gipson is theatre coordinator and Gianna Horvath is in charge of marketing.
The new hotel name is Stile DTLA by Kasa,
a brand with more limited service, what they call "tech-enabled
hospitality."

We get a view toward the United Artists in "Abandoned" (Universal-International, 1949). Thanks to Don Goldberg for spotting the theatre and getting the screenshot. The vertical for the Eastern Columbia store can be seen up in the 800 block with a fuzzy view of the Orpheum's marquee across the street. We're supposedly in the coffee shop of the "Fenwick Hotel" just south of Olympic, where Broadway Place once headed diagonally off from Broadway.
Dennis O'Keefe is a newspaper reporter and Gale Storm is trying to uncover what happened to her
murdered sister. Along the way they investigate a baby broker racket and
more. The film also features Raymond Burr, Jeff Chandler, Marjorie
Rambeau,
Jeanette Nolan and Meg Randall. Joseph M. Newman directed. The
cinematography was by William H. Daniels. See the Historic L.A. Theatres in Movies
post about "Abandoned" for shots from a daytime scene in the coffee shop plus a later view of the stage end of the Biltmore Theatre as the couple take a walk up Grand Ave.
The entrance, lobby and main floor of the auditorium have a nice cameo in "Sweet Smell of Success." Burt Lancaster, Tony Curtis, Susan Harrison and others do a scene in front of the stage. The UA is pretending to be a theatre in New York. The film, directed by Alexander Mackendrick, was a 1957 United Artists release of a Hecht, Hill and Lancaster production. In this shot you can see the ad for "Oklahoma!" over the entrance that has been blacked out.
About 40 minutes into the Blaxploitation classic "Black Sampson" (Omni Pictures, 1974) we get a little chase up Broadway and a look at the United Artists in the distance of this shot. William Bail directed the tale of a barkeeper named Sampson with a pet lion. The bad guys are trying muscle into the neighborhood and he rises to the occasion. The film stars Rokne Tarkington and William Smith.
A stripper played by Claudia Christian goes on a rampage and takes a wild drive down Broadway in “The Hidden” (New Line Cinema, 1987). Her body has, of course, been taken over by an alien creature. Here we're looking north from Olympic with the dark UA over on the left. Jack Sholder directed the film starring Kyle MacLachlan and Michael Nouri. See the Historic L.A. Theatres in Movies post for views of other theatres seen in the film including the Westlake, Las Palmas, Pantages and the Palace.
Vincent Perez is back from the dead and climbing the facade of the theatre in "The Crow: City of Angels" (Dimension Films, 1996). The local gang leader who killed him and his young son has his headquarters in the tower. See the Historic L.A. Theatres in Movies post for more shots of the scenes at the UA plus a view of the north side of the Los Angeles as well as a visit to the Linda Lea on Main St.
April Wright interviews Leonard Maltin in the balcony of the United Artists for her lovely documentary "Going Attractions: The Definitive Story of the Movie Palace" (Passion River, 2019). The UA is just one of many Los Angeles theatres appearing in the film. You can find more information on the Going Attractions website.

Thanks, Pat! See the L.A. Conservancy page on the Ace project -- they gave it a 2014 preservation award.
The theatre, and its sister theatres in Detroit and Chicago, are discussed on page 47 of "The Theater Designs of C. Howard Crane," a 1992 University of Pennsylvania master's thesis by Lisa Maria DiChiera. It's on Internet archive. The site Visiting Media has panoramic photo tours of many different areas of the building.
Historic Detroit has some sad photos of their United Artists. Forgotten Detroit also has a photo gallery of our unfortunate UA relative. See the Cinema Treasures page on the United Artists Detroit (still decaying) and United Artists Chicago (demolished).
