The movies were a popular form of entertainment during High Point's golden age, and no fewer than five theaters were located downtown. The Broadhurst Theater, at 325 North Main Street, was only two blocks north of the Rialto and Carolina theaters, which were themselves only a few blocks north of the Paramount and Center theaters. The Broadhurst was conveniently located across the street from the Sheraton Hotel, occupying one of several classically-inspired buildings that were erected on North Main Street during the early 20th Century.
