The 1,000 seat theater opened in September of 1914. It closed early in 1916 reopening in 1917. After closing, it had a brief relaunch early in 1921 as the Lyric Theatre. After closing that same year it was reopened by Robert B. Joplin on September 24, 1921 as the McAvoy Theatre. One mile east is a historical marker for the Michigan Avenue Heritage Corridor entitled, “Moving North” that commemorates the McAvoy Theatre’s existence.
