I found the address of 310 1st Ave. NE.52401
This theatre need the address added to the header, I come up with the same address that LM did on Nov. 21, 2008.
The lobby for the US Cellular Center arena stands about where the theater stood. It was across the street from the Iowa theater and the Columbia theater and next door to the Grand (Lyric) theater located in the Grand hotel building. Both the Grand and Columbia were short lived converted store front theaters. Interestingly enough, larger entertainment venues replaced all three theaters.
The Town and Grand were replaced by the arena and the Columbia by the Iowa theater building.
In 1955 the Town Theater had 665 seats. The address given is 310 First Avenue.
