Was this theatre also known as the Palace Theatre at one time?
Was the Capitol located where Firsst Financial Bank is today?
The address given for the Palace was 230 South Main Street so both theaters were probably located on the same block. I think the Palace Theater building might still be standing.
The Palace is still there, but the Capitol is now the drive thru for First Financial Bank. Street View shows the building right next to the Capitol (to the North) is still standing, however.
