The Home opened in 1915, and was located on C Street, at 12th Place. It closed in 1952. A church currently operates at the theater's old address, but I am unsure if it is housed in the former theater, or a new structure.

The Home Theatre had 650 seats, according to the 1932 Film Daily Year Book.

Here is a 1926 photo of the Home Theater.

This is a recent photo. It looks like a different building compared to the 1926 photo.

The trade journal The Moving Picture World said in its issue of August 14, 1915, that the newly-formed Home Amusement Company was building a new theater on C Street between 12th and 13th Streets. The architect of the new house was William S. Plager.
