The Civic Opera House opened only days after the 1929 Stock Market Crash (Northrop Auditorium in Minneapolis also opened only days after the 1929 Stock Market Crash).
With almost 3600 seats, the Civic Opera House is far too large for opera performances (a defect it shares with Northrop Auditorium, built to accommodate a whopping 4850 patrons).
