The Palace Theatre, originally called the Alhambra, opened on August 1, 1914. It was designed by architect Henry C. Trost to be used either as a playhouse for live theatre or as a movie house. The theatre displays a Spanish Colonial format with Moorish influence, with the façade exhibiting a delicate overall tracery of Arabesque. Although it has been significantly altered for use as a nightclub, the original character of the building can still be seen.
