This theater was not demolished but has been converted into a carpet store recently. It is located in downtown Sandwich on 120 East Railroad Street just a few doors down from the Sandwich Opera House. It’s hard to tell now that it was once a theater.
Stevepatrick, I’ll be willing to share some more information with you through my email address that patsy posted in her last email. Please put Arcada Theater in the heading of your email. Regards ,Matt
Hello Stevepatrick & Patsy, Just to clearify I am not a staff member of the Arcada Theatre. I just happened to put on a silent movie show there.I only know what I’ve heard from Todd Smith who rented the theatre space. Glad to hear someone is interested in saving the theater and hope someone can convince the building owner the importance the theatre plays to the downtown section of St. Charles and not destroying the interior like others did to the Hinsdale Theater in IL. It’s would be sad to see another cinema treasure gone in the Illinois area. Regards, Matt
