Leo W. Schaefer is responsible for the creation of several of our historic buildings.
Derick Segerstrom is the Manager of the Visual Arts Department at the Paramount Center for the Arts. He says Schaefer designed the then-called Sherman Theatre that opened in 1921, as well as several other buildings downtown.
Schaefer was an associate architect for the Stearns County Courthouse which was built in 1919. Just across the street from the Paramount, the St. Mary s school which is now called the Mary Center was built in 1924. And then, down the street, Schaefer helped design the Nathaniel Hotel in 1925, which today part of it houses Cream City Tattoo.
Century In St. Cloud: Breen Hotel Opened Same Year as Paramount
Originally known as the Breen Hotel, it opened in March of 1921.
Derick Segerstrom is the Manager of the Visual Arts Department at the Paramount Center for the Arts. He says the Breen offered an upscale overnight experience.
It included a fine dining restaurant located in the lobby, shopping in a couple of boutiques on the main floor, a small barbershop, and a reception room in the lower level known as the Winter Gardens.
He says they ve always been separate buildings, but their histories are intertwined, including the present day.
Century In St. Cloud: Inside and Out Artifacts Around Paramount
ST. CLOUD One of the most iconic images in downtown St. Cloud has to be the marquee outside Paramount Theatre.
Derick Segerstrom is the manager of the Visual Arts Department at the Paramount. He says the marquee we know today was installed in the spring of 1946.
It features a 500 blub canopy and a 456 bulb neon tube fountain. We know that it weighs about three tons because in 1997 they removed the fixture to repair and restore it as part of a major renovation project the entire building went through.
When there are regular shows at the Paramount the sign on the marquee has to be changed regularly, which is still done by hand.
