Opened as the Turner Grand Opera House on May 17, 1888. Architects were Clausen & Burrows. It closed in December of 1945.
Building demolished in 1975, after being damaged in a fire in 1961. The building was remodeled a few times. I’ve added a map view with the later appearance.
The theater is listed on both the 1950 and 1956 maps with no note of closure. Perhaps it was only used for stage performances?
