Kresler was also the original owner of the Palace when it opened.
Closed on September 15th, 2024, according to its Facebook page.
The recent opening of the Palace Theatre at Rensselaer, Indiana, was briefly noted in the January 13, 1929 issue of Film Daily.
I’m not sure why it was necessary to vandalize the stone nameplate (or to paint the brick that ugly reddish brown), but it originally said ‘Kresler’. Frank Kresler was a local businessman who constructed this building.
