Cuba Theatre

This theater opened in 1948 on the East Side Square (S. 4th Street), between E. Main Street and E. Jefferson Street, and was Cuba’s second movie house in town after the Fulton Theater closed. The New Cuba Theater was fairly short-lived, closing in 1962.

I don’t know that much about it, but it was the New Cuba in 1950.

Don’t think this is demolished. Building in the middle of the block looks like an ex-theater.
