Club queen on the downtown scene
Prowling around at night
You're not mean, you're just born to be seen
Born to be wild
A little party never hurt no one, that's why it's alright
You want in but you just can't win
So you hang in the lights
You're so Art Deco, out on the floor
Shining like gun metal, cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
When they all say hello
You try to ignore them
Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more
Young thing on the downtown scene
Rolling around at night
Got things, that have yet to be seen
Like your rapper's delight
A little party never hurt no one, that's why it's alright
You want in, but you just can't win
So you stay in the lights
You're so Art Deco, out on the floor
Shining like gun metal, cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
When they all say hello
You try to ignore them
Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more
A little party never hurt no one
So you stay out late
A little party never hurt no one
That's what your friends say
You put your life out on the line
You're crazy all the time
Put your life out on the line
You're crazy all the time
You're so Art Deco, out on the floor
Shining like gun metal, cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto
You're looking to score
When they all say hello
You try to ignore them
Cause you want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
You want more (why?)
Cause you want more
A little party never hurt no one
Not you and me
A little party never hurt no one
We were born to be free
In July 2016 Rockport Center for the Arts acquired land in downtown Rockport for a planned expansion. The property contained a historical art deco jewel: Klein's Cafe Building, which was built in 1942. The building was damaged by Hurricane Harvey in August 2017, but was restored and operational by December of the same year, as the new RCA space.
A few years later the land under the building was needed for an 22,000 square foot development in downtown Rockport. Citizens, supporters of the arts and local history organizations assisted RCA with a plan to have the real estate development proceed and save the historical cafe.
On March 31, 2021 RCA successfully relocated the building from 106 S. Austin St. in downtown Rockport to a location 4 blocks away at 504 S. Magnolia St. at a cost of $200,000.

It was the end of the roaring twenties, and the country was not engaged in any wars, and people were enjoying a period of apparent prosperity. But, that all ended in the fall of 1929. On October 29, 1929, called Black Tuesday, when investors traded some 16 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange in a single day. The crash, which followed the London Stock Exchange's crash of September, signaled the beginning of the Great Depression.
But, prior to that devastating event life for many was good, and the young movie industry was flourishing around the country. "Movie Theater Palaces" were being constructed throughout the big cities and smaller cities alike. Warner Brothers Studio had hired Thomas W Lamb, a Scottish immigrant and renown architect who specialized in designing elaborate theaters. Lamb's beautiful work dotted the countryside with prior examples found in San Francisco, Boston, and New York City.
The Warner Theatre was built in Torrington, CT as a first-run movie palace by Warner Bros. Studios. This elaborate art-deco building's opening in August, 1931, was a statewide event attended by then-Governor Wilbur Cross and many other dignitaries. Seating 1,772 patrons, the Warner was a stunning example of state-of-the-art technology and lush, elegant surroundings.

This Casino is located in the heart of the Gran Vía in a luxury art decó building built between 1919 and 1924, which used to be the headquarters of the Trade and Industrial Circle, and which has been declared Artistic Heritage.
The same building also houses the Hotel Círculo Gran Vía, partially renovated in 2017 and exclusively for adults, the only Hotel Casino in Madrid.

Le 8 octobre 1912 est inaugurée l'immense coupole Art nouveau d'architecture circulaire, son point culminant est situé à 43 mètres du sol, ce dôme en verre est couronné par dix piliers de béton (Théophile Bader aimait à utiliser des matériaux très modernes pour l'époque, de même que du ciment armé aux étages. Les décors sont réalisés par des maîtres de l'école de Nancy : Édouard Schenck (faisceaux métalliques sculptés de motifs floraux), Jacques Grüber (vitraux néobyzantins) et Louis Majorelle (ferronnerie des balcons et escaliers à triple envolée)
