This item about the Brentwood Theatre is from the April 25, 1941 issue of The Film Daily:

“Brentwood Open In Fla.

“Jacksonville, Fla. — The new Sparks Theater, the Brentwood, has been opened with Robert Ewing as manager. This is a 540-seat house, designed by Roy A. Benjamin, architect, and built by A. L. Clayton, Jacksonville contractors.”

The Brentwood closed in 1959 or 1960. It was operated by Florida State Theatres. An inspection of the inside of the building today will reveal the projection booth (with the port holes filled in) and the manager’s office. The marquee and poster frames are remnants of the old theatre.
