The building to the right of this picture is the old Capitol Theater. The office on the left side of the Capitol Theater was a barber shop. The lean-to on the side was added after the theater was torn down as a booth for the parking lot attendant to take parking fees. The Capitol later became part of the parking arrangement it became an inside parking garage.
The Jefferson City Post-Tribune reported the re-opening of the Gem and Jefferson Theaters in July 1937. The announcement was made by Ed Dubinsky, head of Dubinsky Brothers theater interests. Extensive remodeling of the Jefferson was also announced.
The Jefferson Theater was destroyed in a fire on 12/4/50, according to a story in the Jefferson City Post-Tribune at that time. Status should be closed/demolished.
