I attended movies in the Murray Hill many times as a child, and always enjoyed this neighborhood theatre. I remember a small stage with the curtains pinned back against the surrounding wall.

Boxoffice of January 8, 1949, said that work had begun on a new theater in the Murray Hill district of Jacksonville. The architect was William Marshall. The caption of a photo of the Murray H ill Theatre on this web page also attributes the design to Marshall.

The caption also says the theater now “…operates as an alcohol-free, smoke free, night club featuring live faith based music.”

This is the theater’s web site, which says that the current operation is celebrating its 14th anniversary.
