The 1908 Sanborn shows an ‘Electric Theatre’ operating in a small storefront building constructed sometime between 1889 and 1894 as a millinery. The building was not very deep, and this must have been a very basic conversion. The theatre had disappeared by 1913.
This building has been remodeled and incorporated into a larger structure to the south. It is currently a pizza place.
