EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic First Theatre in Monterey, California, USA, a ramshackle building that dates back to 1847. Located at the intersection of Pacific and Scott Streets, this shabby structure was the first theatre in California and was built by Jack Swan, a British sailor. Known as the Union Theatre, it has stood the test of time, bearing witness to over a century of history. The image, estimated to have been taken circa 1908 during the 1900s, presents a stark contrast to the modern-day Monterey landscape. The theatre, with its weathered facade and overgrown grassy surroundings, stands out against the paved streets and urban development that surrounds it today. The First Theatre in Monterey holds significant historical importance, as it served as a gathering place for the community during the 1840s. It is believed that the theatre was used for various purposes, including religious services, social events, and even political meetings. Despite its humble beginnings and simple appearance, it played a crucial role in the cultural and social fabric of Monterey and California as a whole. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and heritage that can be found in the streets of Monterey, California. It invites us to imagine the stories and memories that have unfolded within its walls and to appreciate the enduring legacy of this remarkable building.
