Paul R. Marchesano on January 2nd, 2026:

from Cinema Treasures:
Opening in 1928, one of Aurora’s larger movie houses after the Paramount Theatre (which was, like the Tivoli Theatre, designed by architectural firm Rapp & Rapp), the Tivoli Theatre could seat over 1,000. It was equipped with a Geneva 3 manual 11 ranks organ. It shared a building with a bowling alley.

The Tivoli Theatre was closed in 1981, and has since been torn down.
