Citation needed[edit]

Hello. I downloaded the source given, the National Register of Historic Places PDF and was disappointed to not find the stated fact, that the Tower was the second American theatre to use fluorescent lights and paint. It's entirely possible I'm reading the source wrong, and also entirely possible that we need a new source. Who was the first? -SusanLesch (talk) 15:06, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Added. Most of the material is under the heading "Anthony Heinsbergen", section 8, page 6 (the 19th page in the PDF). Chris857 (talk) 21:49, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, man am I sorry! I downloaded the wrong file (that was named 92001276.pdf) by accident. It is a file full of pictures that accompanied the other file (also named 92001276.pdf but in a different directory). This was entirely my fault. Thank you for adding that bit, just the same. Best wishes. -SusanLesch (talk) 01:14, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note about ref page numbering[edit]

This is a note to others (and myself) that part of the reasoning for explicitly mentioning Section number and page for the refs is that the online nomination doc is missing Section 9, page 7 (which would be the 31st page in the PDF). Chris857 (talk) 02:49, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Adventure Church ownership battle[edit]

i think it’s of significant importance to update this page to reflect the attempt of the Adventure Church to purchase the theatre, the protests that happened, and then the city’s purchase of the venue in April 2022! articles are easy to find about the topic. 67.187.226.215 (talk) 01:04, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
