Roxy Theatre Photos
"Front
facade is the best example of Art Deco style in Brigham City. .
. Strong vertical features in upper front facade include
lighting fixtures and three vertical rows of small windows. Lower
facade is ceramic tile (yellow with green and blue trim); upper
facade is painted light green. Most remarkable feature is "Roxy" marquee."*

"In 1936, the theatre underwent a change
of management. The
new operators brought the "Roxy" marquee down from Logan
and renamed the theatre accordingly. Another major remodeling
took place in 1949. Most of the Art Deco facade was added at
this time."*

The southern half of the Roxy Theatre
site was originally occupied by Rosenbaum Hall. In 1904 a
brick addition was added on the north. In 1930 a 25-foot
addition was added in back and a single roof was installed over
the whole structure. In
1932, the walls separating the Rosenbaum Hall from the additions
was removed and the New Grand theater opened.
