The Elk Theatre was built by Douglas and Everett Connellee after their previous theatre and hotel, the New Central, burned in 1947. The Elk opened in 1949. It was operated by Douglas Connellee into the 1970s. It was later leased and operated by someone else and when the theater closed it became a factory for the manufacture of kitchen cabinets. The building was sold after Mr. Connellee’s death in 1984.
