Built by my great uncle and aunt Naman E. Frank and wife Jessie [nee Bennett, of Middleville, MI]. Two of Naman’s brothers also owned movie theatres. Morris owned the Kent Theatre in Cedar Springs, Michigan. Youngest brother David Eli (known as Eli) and wife Dorothy built and owned the Gale Theatre in Galesburg, Michigan.
