From comments on the article above, “I’ve only dabbled in its history as well, but can add that Harry S. Bastian (a contractor and realtor) built at least the 2-story section in 1915-1916. The Peter Pan movie theater operated at least from 1916-1919, but was called the Superba Theater in 1920.” and “According to Gene Gladson’s book, “Indianapolis Theaters from A to Z”, the Peter Pan opened on December 24, 1915.”
