The Strand was on the southeast corner of 6th & Adams. The Orpheum was on the east side of 5th street just south of jefferson.

I believe the Orpheum was a block north of the square on 5th and the Strand was a block east on Washington

No, it was the Strand Theater, and was by the Barber College. The Orpheum was a block south of the square.

I believe that at the far right of the old photo, behind the Robert Bros. building, is the auditorium of the Orpheum Theatre.
