Formerly the site of the Chautauqua Hotel and Administration Building, the Art Deco Arcade was built in stages starting in 1940 to house games, such as a shooting gallery, skeeball, and other attractions. The main level of the Arcade Building now provides space for several longstanding resident arts organizations, including Adventure Theatre and the Puppet Col., as well as the park's photography, rfused glass, and music programs. Renovated and reopened in 2004, the upper levels of the Arcade Building house the offices of the Glen Echo Park Partnership and many classrooms.
