Breaking News: The Capitol Theater is going to begin some major renovation tomorrow (Monday). The marquee will be removed and the awning will be repaired.

So, say your last goodbyes and take a few photos bright and early because they begin at 8am. The hope is to replace the marquee with one more in the style of the original. After the marquee is removed, take a moment to notice the stained glass windows of the muses that have been hidden underneath for many years.

Wonderful

A fixture I always took for granted with a half century of memories crawling around under it. I'm very interested in seeing the rediscovered facing. Thanks for preserving these last images.
