In the town of Lorain, Ohio, located just west of Cleveland, the 1,720-seat〔http://www.lorainpalace.com/content.aspx?PID=147〕 Lorain Palace Theatre first opened its doors in 1928. It was the first motion picture theater in Ohio to show a talking motion picture.〔http://www.lorainpalace.com/content.aspx?PID=146〕 The opening night film, and first talky played in Ohio was a pre-release of Paramount’s "Something Always Happens" starring Neil Hamilton and Esther Ralston. Today it serves as a community Civic Center, movie theatre, meeting place and entertainment facility.〔http://fox8.cityvoter.com/lorain-palace-theatre/biz/142163〕 The crystal chandelier, Wurlitzer pipe organ (one of only four remaining in theaters across Ohio), and two spacious loges are just some of the features which made this building worthy of being preserved.〔http://www.lhat.org/conference_theatre/2009/tours.asp#5〕 ==History==
The theatre was built as part of an initiative to rebuild downtown Lorain, following a devastating tornado destroyed most of the 44,000 inhabitant town's urban center. It still has its original Wurlitzer theatre organ and was popular well into the 1960s.〔http://cinematreasures.org/theater/1042/〕 When it was completed, it was the largest one floor motion picture theare in Ohio.〔http://www.visitloraincounty.com/historical-sites〕 Popularity of the theatre diminished following the construction of the nearby mall in the mid-1960s. Several other theatres and shops in the area closed their doors at this time.
