Peak Theatre 1
A classic movie theater in downtown Colorado Springs, CO. Photographed May 22, 2010.
The Peak is now formally known as the "Kimball's Peak Three Theatre."

The building's marquee has not changed much over the past 35 years. In fact with a simple change of movie title, it would look exactly as it did that wonderful summer afternoon in 1975 when the Peak showed every single movie in the "Planet of the Apes" series back to back !

Right around the corner from the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. The funny purple spike statue is one of several scattered about on the lawn -- part of an amazing series called "Spore 2010" by artist Chris Weed, whose work appears at the Fine Art Center as part of the Conflict Resolution show.
