The colonial style Crescent Theatre opened sometime in the 1920’s. With a single-it could seat 800 moviegoers. While operated by Kerasotes Theatres it was remodeled becoming a twin screen theater in the early 1980s. In 2001, it became part of the GKC Theatres chain. It is still showing first-run movies in 2017.

I tried counting how many light bulbs it would take to light up the marquee, but I don't have that many fingers.
