The Northeast Temple is shown on the 1904 Sanborn. The 1909 permit must have been issued for the theater conversion, as a store of some sort is shown on the first floor on the map. It’s not clear exactly how old the building was (the only older map of DC is from 1888, and leaves out almost all of Northeast), but it was a 4 story brick structure. It seems to have been replaced by the western portion of a large two story moderne structure, which may have been the Northeast Market, which is shown on the 1904 map as a one story brick structure on the corner.
