This item appeared in the November 28, 1925, issue of Motion Picture News:

“Detroit — Plans are being prepared by E. J. Knopke, 1101 Lafayette Bldg., for erection of theatre bldg., stores and offices at Gratiot and 7 Mile Rd.”
This web page features an ad for Flamingo Hall, a ballroom and event center that occupied the building some time after the 1952 closing of the theater.
