Martin Theatre

According to the NRHP listing for downtown, the building was constructed in the 1920’s as a grocery store. At some point, it was remodeled into a theatre owned by several local stockholders. Unclear when it closed. Based on the location, this was likely a segregated theatre for African-American patrons. It later became a church but is currently in ruins. The building is a simple one story flat-fronted brick storefront, with a bit of decorative brickwork along the roofline. Roof is completely gone, as is most of the interior.
