The building still stands at 207 Main Street as of the 2020s.

Grand opening ad from September 6, 1931 for the Coronado Theatre posted with Walter Huston in “The Star Witness.” A nice note to owner Elizabeth Lewejohn from architects Emil Christensen and John Nyquist - the Columbus, Nebraska based architects of the Coronodo Theatre - is posted from 1931 in photos.

On December 12, 1954, the theatre installed widescreen projection to present CinemaScope films beginning with “Three Coins in the Fountain.” The Theatre was still operating in 1969 but was converted for an agribusiness location in 1977.
