The historic Central Theatre is located in downtown Ely on W. 15th Street. The Art Deco style single screen theater opened on March 31, 1941 and was built for Percy W. & Walter Hull. Seating for 731 was located on a single level. It showed first-run movies. The Central Theatre was closed in December 2011. It was reopened on May 28, 2012. Conversion to digital projection is planned for later in 2012.
The Central Theatre was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.

Once again cool night shot ken mc.
According to its facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ely-Central-Theater/298538513492675 , It closed in December.
I worked here as a teen in the late 50’s and early 60’s. The box office was between the doors. That was in the days when John Mariani was the doorman and Vic Walker was the Manager. Great times.
The Central Theater is reopened as of May 28th, 2012. I am managing it and am putting together a group to purchase the theater. Digital conversion should be completed by Sept.
