After browsing around the Schenectady page linked to above, I found several other photos of the Art Theatre that was at 432 State Street prior to Proctor’s.
It appears to be the same building in a few of them, so I believe Proctor’s remodeled the existing Art Theatre into their own.
I posted only one photo of the Art Theatre entrance in 1913, but there are more available.
Also, the Mohawk Theatre on College Street which was a vaudeville and burlesque venue, ran films for one year it appears prior to closing in 1914.
Also claiming to be the first to run an Edison talking film.
The post office is and was next door, if you look at the 1999 photo. Same building with the same entrance & window.
The Dakota Theatre site is the vacant land to the right in the current street view.
