I believe this link has video of the Palace. I’ve reached my limit of free Tribune articles for the month… If it is the wrong Palace Theatre, let me know in a comment and I’ll delete it and add it where it belongs.

The current street view shows the entrance area has been split into 3 separate storefronts. It appears they kept whatever original pitched entryway the theatre had, on two of the storefronts. The third had it’s interior space extended out to the sidewalk border.
