It measures 65 feet wide and 185 feet deep, and consists of three sections: a five-bay by three-bay main block, (housing the lobby, storefronts, projector rooms and apartments above), a large auditorium (housing the theater), and a one-story, rectangular concrete block rear section. It is an intact example of a small regional theater built during the heyday of the Catskills resort era.[2]:5
