The building was not demolished; for years, until recently, it was a salvage bursiness – Norton and Sons. Remnants of the lobby were still in existence as was the stage and the sloping floor. The manager’s office, on the north end of the west (street) side has the original paneling and chandelier.

Chuck, I am a teacher from Omaha North High Magnet School, which is located near the Corby. My Civil Engineering and Architecture students are having problems finding information. If you can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
