Historic name: Texas Theater (built 1950)

About This Property

The beautiful Texas Theater was built in 1950.  It was the pinnacle of modern Kingsville.  The theater was designed by prominent theater architect, Jack Corgan, and built with fire-proof materials.  The doors were specially designed to open outward should an emergency occur, allowing easy exits for movie goers.  Not only was there a very modern wide screen for showing movies, there was also a full stage so that plays or magic shows could be performed.  Today the Texas Theater is undergoing renovation.
