The former Ritz Theatre building was converted into townhouse apartments in 2007 after the building had previously served as a warehouse since closing as a movie house in the late 70s. The Ritz began as the Baltzall Opera House in 1905 and was converted into a movie theater, renamed the Ritz, in 1945.

Found a recent picture showing a cleaned facade and new marquee. I was really hopeful for it, until I learned the rest of the story: http://www.hammondhistoricdistrict.org/tour-ritz/
