Built in 1902 by George W. Thatcher, this large two-story brick building is one of Logan’s early examples of commercial architecture, later given some Victorian embellishments. It was originally built to house the Studebaker Wagon Company, and the area above the theatre entrance was where KVNU, Logan’s first radio station, began and where the local Republican Party held its first few meetings. Thatcher and some associates later decided that Logan needed a grand theatre, and eleven years later the Capitol Theatre was completed. In its day it hosted grand performances and was one of the finest facilities of its kind. After the 1950s it was used primarily for movies, and a $6.4 million renovation restored its ornate interior so it could again present musical, theatrical, and world-class opera performances.
