Another confusing listing full of errors. There is no Liberty St, and never has been. The odd side of Water would have been on the east side, not the west. May have been at the corner of S Water and E Mill? In any case the entire block was long ago eaten by an ugly monstrosity of city/county offices. The most ‘recent’ Sanborn is from 1913, and only shows houses along that part of the street. On the map there is a large 2 story block under construction along E Kansas, which seems to have the numbers 101-105 assigned to its western face. The next down is a house at 115.
The Plaza Theatre began its life as the Lyric Theatre and was open prior to 1926. It was renamed the Liberty Theatre in 1928. It became the Plaza Theatre in 1933. This theatre should AKA’s Lyric Theatre & Liberty Theatre.
