Last info I have is that the building is owned by Jason Pilgrim son of Joann Pilgrim a local realtor. Was damaged in St Patrick’s day fire of building 2 buildings south. Water pressure from fire hoses damaged south side of building and caused upper brick wall to collapse. Now exposed to weather.

Would the current owner please contact me, at . I spoke with Rudy and he no longer owns this theater. The fire that burned at the end of the block took a salon and a building next to it. I believe there are still 2 buildings between the demolished burned buildings and the Regal. I haven’t walked around back but, it doesn’t look from the front to have been damaged from the fire or water.

6I was told new owner bought it in auction at Court House for back taxes. Rumor has it there fixing it up to open back as a tavern.

Nice art deco design and marquee. Looks in good shape.

As I stated earlier, the building was damaged by the spray from the fire hoses the night of the fire down the street. You must drive down the alley behind the building to see the damage. It is extensive. A large “Hole” in the side of the building. Animals enter the building at any time and the building is completely open on the south side from the damage. Nothing has been done to repair the damage or close up the building since the night of the fire. Quite a shame.
