I saw mamy a movie there in the 60’s upstairs in the balcony of course, I saw Ursula Andress in She, Those were the old days, And the theater always had double feature playing.
Closed in 1964 from what I found, was operated by Florida State Theatres.
The Howell Theater was on Lemon Street, not Lemon Lane, also the Black people had to come in off First street and had to go upstairs and the Whites came in off Lemon Street. I when there many times in the 50’s 60’s. Goldfinger 007 was one movie I remember seeing there when it came out. John Wyane in North to Alaska was another one.
This theater might be alot older than I thought. This site mentions that Booker T. Washington visited the Howell Theater at Palatka in 1912.
