Theater

This theater appears on the 1911 Sanborn, in a small brick building that is likely the remains of an opera house on the 1905 map. This was a two story structure, oddly with the auditorium on the ground floor, and a dwelling above. There seems to have been a fairly serious fire in the years between the maps, and although the theater building is shown as 2 stories on the later map, it is only 16 feet tall, matching the one story buildings near it.

Whatever the exact history, this building has been long used as retail. It is now an insurance office.
