This theatre is not demolished. The building is still there and houses retail stores on the first floor and apartments on the second floor. The theatre was built in 1929 by the same company that built the Kent, OH theatre. The two buildings are very similar. It apparently closed as a theatre in the mid 60’s.

This theatre was built in 1927 by a company called Burle Steel

This was the place where I took my two older kids to their first movie back around 1992. We saw Aladdin and the three of us had a great time. It was a real nice place with alot of old fashioned charm. We only lived there for a few years but I remember discovering and poking thru the ruins of a drive-in theatre on the south outskirts of town, the screen had fallen down and the area was overgrown with weeds but the projection house/concession stand was still standing. I don’t know what it was called but maybe somebody out there knows and could place it on this site
