Arcade Theatre

Still open in 1914-15, when it was listed in the AMPD. Closed before 1926. This was another building that fronted both Main and Delaware, and was one story taller on the Delaware side due to the slope. This building was constructed sometime before 1895, when the map shows it used as a trunk factory. The buildings still existed in 1950, but this entire set of wedge shaped blocks were destroyed, likely in the dark days of urban ‘renewal’. Delaware St now exists only north of 70, Main runs through the area where the structures were, and the neighborhood is a bleak wasteland of enormous surface lots and some hideous modern buildings.
