This is a most unusual and original Art Moderne (streamline) design, but I wonder if it is really all original to 1926, since there appear to be fluorescent back-lit fixtures on the auditorium walls, according to the many photos on the www.CinemaTour.com site. Also notable is the unusual placement of the retrofit air conditioning outside the auditorium wall with the compressors and cooling tower in an enclsure on the top soil of the adjoining lot, a lot that apparently had a building on it in 1926. The vivid color scheme of lighting as shown in their photos is memorable, but the small stagehouse will hamper any live-action use. Still, the large 4/21 pipe organ is in use and is a great asse

Wonderful Theater! Worth a visit. We were the only people there the night we went (A Tuesday), so they can use the support, too. Lots of historic information available, too.
