It was constructed with 800 seats by Henry Brennan who had a successful Vaudeville house, on which he based the new cinema.[3] He almost immediately sold the building in 1922 to new owners who invested $50,000 in a remodeling project designed by Casper architects William Dubois and Leon Goodrich. The reopening in 1922 featured the William C. deMille movie Nice People, a silent film that was accompanied by the Chicago Netto Ladies Orchestra. In 1928 the Rialto began to show talkies.[2] The Riato measures {{convert|50|ft|m}} by {{convert|100|ft|m}} on a prominent corner site. The brick facade is plain in form but the brickwork is extensively detailed. A tall neon sign marks the corner, replacing the original metal sign and a marquee was added, covering the original leaded glass transoms over the storefronts. A tall parapet adds to the apparent mass of the theater. Storefronts on both frontages house retail shops. On the interior a balcony is reached by two curving stairs on either side of the lobby, replacing a single grand stair from the first design.[2] The Rialto continues to operate as a cinema. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2009a}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=93000037}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Rialto Theater|last=Starr|first=Eileen|author2=Cassity, Michael |date=December 1992|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=2009-08-06}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://wyoshpo.state.wy.us/NationalRegister/Site.aspx?ID291|title=Rialto Thater|publisher=Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office|accessdate=2009-08-06}} External links
