Located on the 200 block of Lemon Street (today St Johns Avenue). The New Theatre was opened prior to 1950 and was owned by the Lawson family. It burned down in the early-1960’s and never reopened.
The tile floor apparently still remains.

Is the tile floor in another building now(on the same site?)?
The tile floor mentioned is actually from a store called Rowton’s that shared the building with the New Theatre. It was torn down and today is a parking lot. The bricks were used to build a home in Palatka as well. Below is a Facebook link to the Rowton’s tile entryway.

Lemon Street is today St. Johns Avenue.
Google 200 St. Johns Avenue Palatka, FL and the Rowton’s tile and vacant lot can be seen there.
Link won’t add to CT correctly.
