Ads appear in the Cortland Standard for the Park Theatre up until 1951. It may have closed that year.

Everyone surprisingly blase about having an opera house sitting above the public library. It’s apparently still at least partially intact.

Next time I am in that area, I will have to stop by. When I lived there, I used to go to a barber whose business was located in the same building as the library. Sadly, memory isn’t good enough to remember what I didn’t pay close attention to.

Thanks for the pointer.

There is a building in Marathon that has “Library Theatre” inscribed on it. The building appears to be pretty old.

I lived in Marathon for about 3 years, about 13 years ago. This place was gone by then. I am curious as to where it was, though.
