The "Avalon", the theater that we almost lost. Designed during the late 20's it was originally planned to have a large balcony hence and has a very high ceiling. The depression hit during construction and plans for the balcony were scrapped. A second smaller auditorium was later installed upstairs in the space whre the balcony was to be installed.
The Avalon was operated for years by a local chain "Circle Theaters" Circle and it's competitor "KB Theaters" ran most of the theaters in DC and during the 70's pretty much let their theaters become rather run down and shabby. During the mid 80's "Cineplex Odeon" spotting the potential of exploiting a long neglected market came in and took over most of the former "KB" and "Circle" properties. One of first things that "Cineplex Odeon" did was a complete restoration of the "Avalon".
The theater, which specialized in showcasing foreign, independent and Hollywood films aimed at an adult audience, operated successfully for years until the owners announced plans to close it and most of the other non-multiscreen theaters in the city.
During the 90's "Cineplex" and a number of other chains had constructed huge multplexes in all of the surrounding suburban communities and were breaking ground on similar venues in downtown DC. Older theaters like the "Avalon" did not fit into their business plan.
After a major legal battle with the theater chain, local developers and the courts a community based group was able to buy the theater, refurbish it and now it operates as one of the few independent cinemas in this area.

Woodend Mansion (John Russell Pope, 1928), at 8940 Jones Mill Road in Chevy Chase, MD, is the headquarters of the Audubon Naturalist Society, and site of the 40 acre Woodend Nature Sanctuary, with a pond, hiking trails, and gift shop. It's also apparently a popular location for weddings; when I visited today, I couldn't go inside the mansion due to a big wedding in progress (note the standard wedding tent at left). I thought about brandishing my camera and saying I was one of the photographers, but wasn't really dressed for a wedding...
