The Gaumont State Cinema on Kilburn High Road (2007)
Designed by George Coles and commissioned and built by Phillip and Sid Hyams, the cinema opened in 1937. The Gaumont State was one of the biggest auditoria in Europe, with seating for 4004 people.
The suffix 'State' is said to come from the huge 120 feet tower, inspired by the Empire State Building in New York City.
