Regent Theater

This theater first appears on the 1917 Sanborn. It was located in an old two story brick storefront, built sometime between 1884 and 1890. The 1912 map shows a pool hall there. This must have started under a different name, but had become the Regent Theatre by 1926. It was still open in 1933, but is listed as closed in 1935. It apparently never reopened, but is still listed as closed in 1946.

The building today is in terrible shape. The brickwork and colorful tiles have recently been painted in a garish scheme, which appears to be the only maintenance the building has received in decades. It is used as a furniture store.
