Renamed Utah 3 on March 28th, 1975. 1933, 1934, 1939 (remodeling) and 1975 grand opening ads posted.
The 1939 redecoration of the Studio was occasioned by a fire on June 7 which damaged the interior and destroyed the sound system, as reported in The Film Daily of July 21. The house was then being operated by Intermountain Theatres.

Mike Rogers, the Utah III AKA Studio was a single screen, it was across the street from the Utah Theatre that was converted from a single screen to a double. Thus renaming the Studio to the Utah III.
Sorta a weird Triple theatre,Guess Plitt was right,but often a discount house will make money and heck you could walk the print across the street.Amazed how many cities have no bargin theatres.We have seven plex $2,00 house that does well.
The Studio Theatre seated 285 people.
I hate to say it, but you have the wrong building. The Studio was in the Bamberger Building. The space is empty. The store front has art work, placed there for the Olympics.
