There’s not much left inside this theatre. Urban Remains (a local salvage company) has removed quite a bit of the ornamentation from the interior of the building. Supposedly the attached building is being turned into apartments while the theatre will be used as storage. I was told that the stained glass emblem was removed last week by the salvagers who plan on displaying it in their museum. A couple weeks ago they let me into the theatre to take pictures that I have posted on photobucket. I have a couple pictures of the stained glass window which was still intact on my visit. The auditorium was very dark so taking pictures was a little tricky (walking around was also very tricky!). I have some really good pictures of the second floor lobby (where the stained glass window is). Even in its current state, it is obvious that this was a stunning theatre in its day. Here are two slide shows that I created from my pictures:
You could be right about Google. The “Checks Cashed” building is next door to the east of the theatre.
