Database Manager on April 05, 2019:

The organ was relocated in 1958 to Broadway First Baptist Church, Winnipeg; The theater was closed in 1958 and the interior was totally gutted in the conversion to a supermarket. A succession of food markets has occupied the building since then. The early 1950’s era marquee remains with the Tivoli name removed and is used currently to advertise weekly specials on the plastic end panels.
