The Park Theatre opened its doors on September 15, 1937 with Spencer Tracy in “Captains Courageous” (unknown if extras added).

The Park Theatre has a facade that is very similar to those of two other theaters built by the Baehr Theatres circuit about the same time: theRidge Theatre at Breckenridge, Minnesota, and the Border Theatre at International Falls, Minnesota. The three houses differed in size and fenestration, but all shared details in common, including the boxy vertical signs that rose from the marquee instead of being attached directly to the facade of the building.
Here is a 1940 photo of the Park:
