I amended the article on my site to include it’s historical location at E. 9th and Chester. It was very short lived. What I didn’t realize was that the downtown location and its successor in East Cleveland was the same developer.
I did some digging in the Cleveland Plain Dealer archives and found several sources as to its opening. You can use http://abandonedonline.net/locations/commercial/euclid-theater/ for your uses on this site – just please give credit.
I did go inside and was … underwhelmed. Long abandoned, the ceiling saw the later addition of a drop ceiling (post-closure). It seems that it was a storefront for years.
Was it split screened at one point? I couldn’t find any indication, but the movie guides showed two movies showing at Euclid in its later years.
