Finally found an image of this theater. Look in the upper left of the photo, a dark buiding next to a 1-story white building. There’s a central arch with tile roofs to either side. 446 seats according to the 1914 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map. http://collections.carli.illinois.edu/u?/uic_idot,573
A Kimball theater organ size 2/8 was installed in the North Shore Theater in 1913. Note: Tubular Pneumatic Action.
The Chicago Historical Society has a database of Chicago Building Permits which lists a permit being issued November 9, 1912 to owner, North Shore Amusement Co. and architects C.W. & G.L. Rapp.
