The architect of the Gladwin Park Theater was E.H. Rogers.

The Gregory Boat Company has two buildings on this block at the theater address. You can see an aerial on the site posted on 10/4/08. Out of thr two, the building further west may be the theater, but the boat company has built something in front of it, I believe.

Maybe it’s a shipyard now. Your guess is as good as mine. The Water Winter Wonderland site lists it as closed.

It is the showroom/service area for gregory Marina, they deal in pleasure boats, and some large ones at that. You can see the shape of the auditorium from the street easily.
