In the 1940’s the theatre was operated by Leon Theatres and later by Frontier Theatres. Closed in 1977.
Frank Whitney built the original Aztec Theatre in 1927 as a counterpart to his Ritz Theatre, further south on Main Street. As noted in the Albany News, Jun 24, 1927,
The new theatre is to be a stucco building of Spanish design…The new show building will feature western pictures and the Ritz will show only the very latest and best pictures on the market.
