Ads that have been uploaded to the Rialto’s photo page indicate that the house was opened at least by 1916, and probably by 1915. This timing makes it likely that the Rialto was the project for a theater and dance hall to cost $30,000 that was noted in the April 28, 1915 issue of The American Architect. The project was deigned by Wilmington, Delaware architect Roscoe C. Tindall.
