Later the Bijou Theatre that was in the basement of the Central Hotel took over the space by November of 1911. The Duval Theatre opened in September of 1912 and may have been in the same building. Duval Theatre became the Carolina Theatre by October of 1912.
The Lyric Theatre opened in the James-Denning building by November 1913. Belk department store took over the James-Denning building in 1917, so the Lyric Theatre was closed. The building was razed in the 1970’s
