Coleman Theatre

[2] Built in 1929 for George Coleman, a local mining magnate, it has a distinctive Spanish Colonial Revival exterior, and an elaborate Louis XV interior.

It was billed as the most elaborate theater between Dallas and Kansas City at the time of its opening, and played host to vaudeville acts, musical groups, and movies.

[1] Like more than 100 other theaters in the Midwest, it was designed by the Boller Brothers architectural firm of Kansas City, Missouri.

It was originally intended to include commercial shops on the first floors of its east and south sides, where the entrances to the theater were located, and to include the Masonic Lodge Hall on the eastern half of its second floor.
