Ah, so the most recent five images in the gallery belong to the earlier Majestic at 231-233 Woodward. Do you want to just create a page for that one, and I’ll transfer the pics to there?

DavidZornig commented about Village Art Theatre on Aug 27, 2019 at 9:42 pm

Four images of the restored, reassembled facade added. Preservation Chicago was instrumental in getting the developer to relocate the building’s main entrance to the former theatre entrance, from the corner where it was originally planned to be.

DavidZornig commented about Oaks Theatre on Aug 27, 2019 at 3:28 pm

UPDATE: Address is 206 N. Main Street. Building is still standing and is City On A Hill Community Church today. The facade has been redone and the art deco doors have been replaced. The doors could still be seen in the 2008 video link below, from the Water Winter Wonderland link below. Also below is the church’s Facebook page which has current interior photos of the auditorium. The Google Street View shows the 2009 Oaks Theatre facade with the art deco doors still in place. If you pan right from there, it will revert to the 2015 street view with the new facade seen from the corner.

Link with a circa 1920 photo Majestic and neighboring Hippodrome, which I believe is the same one as mentioned on the Rogers Theatre page.

This link says Jefferson had 3-4 theatres at one time. I am added a CT page for the Lincoln Theatre. (And added one for the Eagle Theatre in Grand Junction, though I could not find an address.)
