Stringham Theatre
Price, Utah
C. M. Stringham, proprietor of the Eko Theatre, purchased a lot on the north side of Main Street, with the intent of building a 1000-seat, first class theatre. The building was to be “a good and substantial one,” a theatre of which Price could “well be proud and one that will be the equal, on a smaller scale of course, of any theatre in the state in beauty and completeness.” At one point, construction was to start within 60 days. Instead, Stringham purchased the Colonial Theatre four years later and moved to Ogden.

Rapid progress is being made in pushing the many building projects of the summer in Salt Lake. Excavation for the foundations of the McIntyre-McCornick block, a $300,000 structure, and the new Auerbach theatre, to cost $150,000, is well under way, and the old buildings have been torn down on the Salisbury property on lower Main street for the new seven-story building which is to be erected.
