John Eberson is best known for the atmospheric theater design. There are fewer Art Deco designs of his. He designed an Art Deco Theater in Bethesda, MD that was also built in the late 1930’s.
We are unsure of the exact number of Art Deco theaters designed by him. We also are unsure of the number of them that still exist today. We would appreciate any citable information regarding these numbers.
The resotration of the Auburn Schines Theater in Auburn NY is moving forward under the Cayuga County Arts Council. This would be a good theater restoration project to feature on “Back to the Blueprint”.
The building will never be destroyed it is under the watchful eye of the State Historic Preservation Organization and is on the National Register of Historic Places. It can only be preserved. It deserves recognition and respect as the architectural treasure that it is. It is a beautiful example of a John Eberson Art Moderne theater.
Restoration of the facade is underway, not including the marquee restoration. The interior of the building requires a large amount of asbestos abatement. Asbestos was released into the building when the roof collapsed. Present projects inside the building include some limited asbestos abatement and the restoration of electrical service to the building.
Information regarding the theater restoration can be found through the official web site of the Cayuga County Arts Council www.cayuganet.com/arts or by contacting the Cayuga County Arts Council through the Cayuga County Chamber of Commerce; 36 South St.; Auburn NY or email:
