Avon Theater

I currently live in one of the upper apartments in this building…It has been many things since the furniture store. I don’t know when the second floor was added….. It was an arcade, a bar amusement repair shop (still existing in the lower rear of the building), a motorcycle repair shop (lower front), and lastly, a union hall with offices on the second floor, which were turned into two mammoth apartments. There is a storage room at the upper back of the building, and you can still see how the construction changes, with large wooden supporting beams with trusses ,extending roof to lower level floor,probably to support the screen….in the downstairs, the floor goes from concrete to wood from where the large beams set into the concrete about 9 feet from the back wall

Here is a photo of the Avon as a furniture store.
