When the theater was built, the basement was a furniture warehouse. When I visited in 2012, the entire street in front had been torn out, and you could see the windows in the front. I assume there were plentiful sidewalk lights at one point.

The 1992 NRHP listing has a photo with the theater bearing the Stonewall name, but that name came much later. It was definitely built for the Masons. The third floor was intended for their use.

This article does not mention the original Stonewall Theatre name, and refers to a previous name as the Mason Hall and Opera House.
