The address stated, Main St., is wrong. The theater was located at the intersection of Rt. 355 and E.Diamond ave in Gaithersburg. Md. The railroed tracks were just a few feet south of the theater.
Excuse me, I spelled railroad wrong.

Chronological history with both Lyric & Gaither owner’s & projectionist’s names, 1990/1991 fire, so not demolished in the `70s as written.
