1067 Barton St. E., Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

Was this ever a theatre, or is it just the marquee that makes me think it was?

Is this the Queens Theatre of 1065 Barton St. E. (CT #1750)?

Any idea what the back of the building looks like? Addresses often "float" within the block, so a next-door address probably means it's the same thing.

Adam is right about the addresses floating. Even in the city directories a theatre can have an address one year then the next year the address is listed as a couple of numbers over, yet the theatre stayed in the same spot. If the rest of the building looks like a theatre than I'm sure this is it.

I didn't know about the theatre at 1065 Barton until I posted the pics... next time I'm in Hamilton and have some time to get over to the east end, I'll take a better look.
