The Ohio Theater is located at 665 S 4th Street, just next to the north side of the Brown Hotel at 4th & Broadway.
The majority of the building was torn down years ago and only the facade with a tiny portion beneath it remains. It is currently the home of a cell phone company.
The Toonerville Trolley that runs up and down 4th Street, has a turn-around and stop at the rear of this theater facade.
This building displays the smooth corners of Art-Moderne/Streamline-Moderne styling.
More research to come.
