One of the pages on the site Gerald DeLuca linked to cites American Architect and Building News of September 13, 1879 saying that Loomer’s Opera House was designed by architect F. H. Kimball. Later in his career, Francis Hatch Kimball would become noted for designing a number of early skyscrapers from his Manhattan office, but in 1879 he was still practicing in Hartford, Connecticut.
The Loomer Opera House was opened in 1879 and was demolished in 1940. Its address was 751 Main Street.
Here is an interesting website on the history of the Loomer Opera House. https://loomeroperahouse.wordpress.com/
