According to Google Maps street photo looks as if a new bank now occupies this property, but may just be a modern facade covering old buildings.
Universal Sign Company (two story brick building) is 115 N. Maple and the Golden China Restaurant is 127 N. Maple. Everything in between those two buildings looks pretty modern…Luxor demolished?
The New Theatre opened its doors on April 19, 1940 with a one-day showing of Basil Rathbone in “Rio” along with a few short subjects. Walt Disney’s smash “Pinocchio” was then shown the following day for a four-day run. It was renamed the Luxor Theatre on April 28, 1940.
