The building that was remodeled to house the Meigs Theatre was the Pomeroy Presbyterian church. Multiple sources say the theater was on East Main Street, but none say exactly where. Old photos show the front of the building was approached by a rather impressive stairway, and so the front had to have been set back some distance from Main Street.

One thing I find quite bizarre is that the Film Daily Year Books don’t list the Meigs until 1946, and then they list it with only 250 seats. There was definitely something screwy going on with that.
