Opened in 1916 as the Michigan Theatre, it was remodeled and reopened as the Vogue Theatre in 1938. It was an independent theatre. Seating was listed at 440. Independent Theatre Exhibitor Services did the booking for the Vogue Theatre.
The Vogue Theatre closed in 1946. It was converted to a Chinese Restaurant. By 2024 it was a bar & grill named the Glass House.

The Vogue opened in 1938. It was a rebuild of a 1923 theater called the Michigan, which had been closed for ten years according to one Boxoffice item about the project. Before and after photos appeared in this article in Boxoffice of October 15, 1938. I can’t find the name of the architect who designed the remodeling, though architects are named for the other two remodeling projects featured in the article.
The Michigan Theatre was apparently a bit older than the author of the 1938 Boxoffice article I cited earlier thought. Here is an item from the July 15, 1916, issue of The Moving Picture World:

Reopened as Vogue on April 17th, 1938. Ad posted.
Ads for the Vogue ended in 1946.
