A History of Fulton County published in 1892 says that the Johnstown Opera House was designed by architect Leon H. Lempert.
New Grand (formely Johnstown Opera House)theatre was on North Market street, but was not at 20 North Market street- that was the address 0f Smalley’s(Johnstown) theatre. (An older theatre, called the Grand was on the same location as Smalley’s until it was destroyed in a fire in 1828) Perhaps some member can find out the correct full address of the New Grand theatre.
It seems a shame that Johnstown, which calls itself “Historic Johnstown,” allowed such a treasure to be destroyed.
As the New Grand showed “Cardigan” on 9/8/1922 as part of the 150th anniversary celebration for Tryon County.
