Nile Theatre

This is an incredibly lazy listing. If the address is correct, this has been demolished. This theater first appears in the 1941 Yearbook as the ‘Zile’ (likely an error, which persists at least through 1946). From the initial capacity of of 337 it seems this was a renaming of the Ritz, which first appears in 1936. After 1942, but by 1946, the capacity increases to 568. There was likely an extensive remodel. The theater is still listed in the 1956 Yearbook. The site today is a gas station. The original structure may have been constructed between 1899 and 1905 as a dance hall/skating rink/bowling alley. By 1918, it had become a dealership.
