Description
Two-story brick building constructed as the Savoy Theater. Classical façade with round-arched windows flanked by pilasters, a shaped parapet, and a central panel with a classical figure in relief. The marquee had been replaced by 1980; the ticket booth has been removed and the entrance altered since then. The interior was gutted in September 2008 due to extreme deterioration.
