The former Champlain Theatre on Canada Street in Swanton today houses a fitness center and retail store. Any further information about the Champlain would be appreciated.

This letter to the editor on the online version of the St. Albans Messenger lends me to believe that the fitness center and variety store which both give addresses of “3 Canada Street” (by a Google search) are housed in the former Champlain Theatre building.
This is a recent obit for Paul D. Langevin. It mentions that “….together with his brother Joseph operated the Champlain Movie Theater in Swanton Village”.
I was on a cycling trip here last week. The former theatre is in the very small and sleepy town of Swanton, not too far from Canada and Lake Champlain. There’s retail on the bottom left, 2 vacancies and upstairs apartments. The theatre auditorium is in the middle but there’s another building on the left corner, not attached to the auditorium but to the front stores and in the same color.
Oops. Dark red brick in front, red painted wood and red painted siding in back.
The Champlain theatre opened in 1935 but I couldn’t find a closing date.
