Idle Hour Theatre

I think this is the unknown theater that I listed at 116 ½. There was no 124, 120 was the highest address. I think the picture shows a post-1909 remodel of the theater to use 116, a very narrow two story storefront, as the entrance. The three story building on the right would have been the old Central Hotel.

We should merge my listing into this one. This theater is not listed in the 1914-15 AMPD, but that was apparently either an oversight or it was briefly closed.
