The Roseland Theater, sometimes Roseland Theater and Grill, is a music venue located at 8 Northwest Sixth Avenue in the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, in the United States. The building was originally a church, constructed by the Apostolic Faith Church in 1922. In 1982, Larry Hurwitz converted the building to a music venue called Starry Night. In 1990, the club's 21-year-old publicity agent was murdered in one of the theater's hallways. Hurwitz sold the club in 1991, claiming he had lost support from the local music industry; in 2000, he was convicted of the murder of Timothy Moreau. The venue was given its current name during the 1991 ownership transfer in an attempt to disassociate from Hurwitz's business and reputation. During the 1990s, Double Tee acquired control of the hall's operations, then purchased and renovated the building. The theater features a standing-only main floor and an upstairs balcony with an adjacent bar. Peter's Room, an intimate showcase venue with a 400-person capacity, includes a restaurant and bar. Roseland has been named "Best Haunted Venue" by one local publication, referring to the murder of a young publicity agent by Hurwitz within the hall. The venue is known for hosting a variety of music acts and for offering quality acoustics.
