1940 Trianon Ballroom Chicago

Description

Trianon Ballroom was Chicago’s most expensive and most extravagant dance hall when it opened in 1922. Its spacious dance floor could accommodate up to 3,000 dances, while the ballroom’s alcoves and upper level could hold just as many. The Trianon was an enormous success throughout the Jazz Age. The closure of the Trianon was in 1958. In subsequent years, the ballroom periodically hosted boxing matches and flea markets but otherwise went unused most nights. It was demolished in 1967 by urban renewal authorities to make way for a low-income housing project.
