Today’s Evanston RoundTable article about a potential 2022 re-opening of the 12 screens, and redevelopment of the 6 screens for other entertainment purposes.
Address is 1 West Tremont Avenue.
Rolling doors are pictured open in the October 2019 Google street view.
2009 photos as True Gospel Tabernacle Church in below link.
Address was 910 Main Street, which is a small park today in between the USDA Service Center and 385 Meat Market.
US-385 Scenic is the current name of Main Street.
If you Google search 385 Meat Market, that is currently in the building that was to the right of the Trail Theatre.
Same building in the Overview photo, of which I added a cripser version a while back to the photo gallery.
LeslieB, there is a 1953 photo of it as Time Theatre in the Photo gallery.
According to the Overview above it was Time Theatre from November 12, 1952 through 1955.
OK I see the Cox’s Theatre page now.
I will swap the Cox photos over later today.
Meanwhile, the Cinematour link has 1995 and 2011 photos of the Penn Theater prior to demolition.

Correction, above is 1846 N. Wells. The original space was next door to the left.
Address was 910 Main Street, which is a small park today in between the USDA Service Center and 385 Meat Market. US-385 Scenic is the current name of Main Street. If you Google search 385 Meat Market, that is currently in the building that was to the right of the Trail Theatre. Same building in the Overview photo, of which I added a cripser version a while back to the photo gallery.
The face above the entrance was recently removed.
The Assyrian American Association signage is gone as well.
Two circa 1964 photos as Calo Bowling.
