The Jackson Theatre opened in 1915. The architectual firm was Van Ryn & DeGelleke. Seating was given at 500. The theatre was first owned by Jack Sellman and later Fox Theatres.

The Jackson Theatre closed in 1956 and was later demolished. There is an apartment building on the site of the former theatre. Any further information on the Jackson Theatre would be appreciated.

The correct form the the architectural firm’s name is Van Ryn & DeGelleke. Henry J. Van Ryn and Gerrit DeGelleke specialized in institutional projects, especially schools, and the Jackson might have been their only foray into the design of commercial theaters.
