This theater should not be confused with an earlier Euclid Theater which was at Euclid and 9th Street in downtown Cleveland which is long gone.
This Euclid Theater was near the intersection of Euclid and Ivanhoe in East Cleveland very near the eastern border of East Cleveland on Euclid Avenue. It opened sometime in the 1920s and closed in 1950. The building that would have housed the entrance and lobby still exists on the north side of Euclid; the auditorium section was still visible from Ivanhoe Road, at least as of 2005, with large gaping holes in its roof.

This appears to be the third theater named Euclid to have existed in the Cleveland area. The original Euclid Theater seems to have disappeared by 1920 as the Loew’s Euclid was operating on St. Clair near 105th (a seemingly odd name for the a theater at that location). This theater now appears to have opened in the 1920s after Loew’s Euclid became the Doan.
I was in this theater a few times with my parents. Around the year 2000 I was waiting for a bus near the theatre. I looked inside one of the store fronts and I could see the entrance and inter lobby of the theater. I was only 4 or 5 when my parents took me here
