History: In 1880, a group of Batavia citizens were asked to invest $100 each to build a two-story opera house on S Shumway in downtown Batavia. Others shared resources by contributing bricks to the construction effort. The two-story building realized its original vision of a being a central location for public meetings, community gatherings and shows for a few decades. But that never turned profitable for its stakeholders. Its use evolved over time from a roller rink to a movie house that was known as the Capitol Theater until the late 1960s. A smattering of service businesses operated out of the building through the end of the century. By the early 2000s, the building’s historic exterior had been pasted over with unattractive shingles and siding with a front façade literally falling down. That’s how it looked when Batavia MainStreet introduced architectural firm, Kluber Inc. to the possibilities of the site for a project in downtown Batavia in 2006. (source: City of Batavia)
