Eight blocks through the grain bins to what Google calls 553 Minnesota Ave to Legends. A nice looking theater facade and marquee.

Wonder how the name of the building Baehr Bldg connects to the theater —

Here’s a photo from August 2011.

The same building design (operated by Baehr Theatres) as the Park Theatre in Park Rapids, MN — so probably built the same year or thereabouts (1939).

The Border Theatre at International Falls (1939) also shared the design of the Ridge Theatre and the Park Theatre.
