Chuck – I expect that it was likely an early movie theater. The building isn’t very deep so that leads me to believe it was a small movie theater of some sort. Not long lived, but it did exist none the less. I would expect they must have had some sort of live performance there as well being that it was standard for the time.
This is not demolished. The only thing gone is that revolting street level brick garbage. The building has been restored, and is a restaurant.
