Uintah Theatre
Vernal, Utah
On 29 April 1912, the New Uintah Theatre opened in the former Elk Building, which had been remodeled “along the latest moving picture house lines, with sloping floor, soloists platform, etc.” The ticket office was outside, under a “blaze of rows of electric lights.” Patrons of nearby towns appreciated having hitching posts on the premises. The New Uintah closed sometime prior to 1932. The E. W. Davis furniture store occupied the building before it became a piano store called the Henderson-Barlett Music Company.

Placing Steel at the Alhambra Theater
Ogden Standard Examiner, 6 October 1914, page 6
This morning the large derrick at the Alhambra theatre building began placing heavy steel beams and pillars for the ceiling and roof of the structure. One piece of steel frame work which will be placed across the arc of the stage weighs nine tons. It will rest on heavy steel pillars.
The concrete work for the basement and the first floor has been completed in the rough, and brick work has been started on the walls from the first floor.
