Address of the post office is 1029, so maybe 1027?
Address is wrong, and this theater has been demolished. It was on 3rd, not 2nd. Was able to track it down because the old post office is visible in the photo. It’s now a parking lot. Address would have been 10xx (on the north side between 10th and 11th streets).
Here’s a column from the Worthington paper that says that the State was “on Third Avenue behind the Hotel Thompson.” The column states that downtown Worthington had another, older, theater, the Grand, “in the substantial building now occupied by Carpet Plus,” which would be 408 10th Street. (Google cache version used because the web site will not currently provide the original.)
Tried to field check this theatre; address appears to be incorrect.
