I believe that the section of Church Street on which the Lyric Theatre was located no longer exists. Google Maps is fetching a suburban residential neighborhood, but the Lyric was in a part of downtown New Britain that has apparently been redeveloped as a part of the campus of CCSU Institute of Technology.

The November 7, 1908, issue of The Moving Picture World said that the Lyric Theatre in New Britain had been leased by Cooney and Woolison, theater operators at Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and that the house had been closed so that extensive alterations could be made.
