Harry Blount opened the Plaza Theatre on August 5, 1937 as the replacement of the Delco Theatre.

  • Unfortunately on the very next day after grand opening, the Plaza Theatre suffered damage from a nearby hotel fire. Its newly-installed plate glass windows were destroyed, as well as some of its sun-tan structural glass in the front of the wall and the marquee glass were cracked. This led to a very short closure until reopening a short time later.
