According to the National Register of Historic Places, this theater was built in 1942 and it replaced an earlier Plaza Theater. The item in Boxoffice is probably about the previous Plaza Theater.

The Plaza Theatre was remodeled and redecorated at a cost of $25,000 in 1940, as described in an illustrated article in Boxoffice Magazine of August 17 that year. The architect for the project was Larry P. Larsen.
