Was this theater ever named the Center Theatre?
The former Oasis Theatre currently houses a church. It appears to have been converted to retail around 1960. The building at 102 South Queen Street appears to have also been built as a movie theater (possibly the Carolina Theatre).
This theater was definitely already open in 1925, but the building doesn’t appear on the 1914 map. It may have been built as an investment by a fraternal order, since the third floor was a lodge hall, above offices on the second.
102 was never a theater. That pent tile roof was popular until the ‘20s at least, and there are two buildings on E Gordon St with the same feature. 102 was under construction in 1901, and is shown as a store through 1925.
