The correct address for the Courtney Theatre is 102 W. Ohio St.
The description isn’t accurate. The Hotel Pennell, aka the Fraternal Inn, was constructed in 1906. It’s a C-shaped structure with the opening facing Ohio. The Courtney cannot have occupied the lobby since the grand staircase still exists. The building is only three stories. There were lodge rooms for the Masons and Odd Fellows on the third floor, but as those were used until the ‘80s, they can’t have been the location of the theater. I suggest that the theater may have been in retail space on the ground floor. There is no marquee on the building. There may have been, but it was gone by 2010. Current usage is a hotel and restaurant. There may be some apartments, and there is retail on the east side and the SE corner.
