Street demolition crews in the Waldo area uncovered a building cornerstone with the following information: “Auditorium 1911 L.A. Buck, Pres. I.W. Avitt, V. Pres C.H. Tucker, Sec. John Reiderer, Tres. G.A. Heiler, Builder”
From the quick research I did, the theaters constructed in 1911 include The Benton Theater, The Apollo and the Alamo. Does anyone know if this information points to a specific theater or auditorium in the Kansas City area? I realize this could have come from any building throughout the country or a school auditorium, but thought I would throw it out there to see if anything turns up. Thanks in advance.
