The first listing of the Piccadilly Theatre appears in the Rochester, NY, city directory for the year beginning August 15, 1916. Page 1560 lists Theatres and Places of Amusement, and the address given for the Piccadilly is “35 Clinton av. N.” The publication “Architecture & Architects of Rochester, NY” (Schmidt, 1959) attributes the design of the building to the firm of Foote & Headley, Rochester (i.e., Orlando K. Foote and Arthur B. Headley).
