A photo of the Strand has surfaced, and it was showing the 1916 film “The Crisis.” In the 1930s, the building was remodeled for use as a retail store by the S. S. Kresge Company, predecessor of Kmart stores. It was likely that this conversion is what saved the building from the wrecking ball during the period when most of downtown Steubenville’s theaters were being demolished. Kresge’s store is long gone now, but the building is still standing, occupied by a second-hand appliance shop. The correct address is 438 Market Street.
