The Mayfair Theater was originally a single-screen theater which opened prior to 1941 and had a seating capacity of 1,500, including a balcony. At some point during the late-1980’s or early-1990’s, it was converted to a triplex.
The last time I was there they still had an old vending machine that poured soda for you into a paper cup (remember that?).
The Mayfair Triplex had closed by the Summer of 2010.

I did a video screening here the other night. They are using the balcony as a projection booth for the original screen. Very strange looking up from there seeing the original seat still in place and chandelier too. I went into the original booth and was attacked by pigeons. The projectors are not there but everything else is still in place including tons of very old trailers and film.
A Kilgen theater organ opus 3677 size 2/4 was installed in the Mayfair Triplex in 1998. Note: Moved from Private Residence. Originally in Rivoli Theatre, Hastings, NE.
