Information for this tour was contributed by Darren Snow. The Ritz Theatre started its life as an opera house in 1885. A new marquee labeled it as the Finke Theatre in 1917, and it was rechristened the Ritz during an art-deco remodeling in 1937. Changes at this time also included the closing-off of the downstairs billiard hall and the lowering of the theatre's entrance to ground level with removal of a short staircase. The theatre was added to the National Register of Historic Places in June, 2004.
