The Sanborn map of Okmulgee dated July, 1920, shows a lot on North Grand between 5th and 6th Streets with the address 108 and the address (506) in parentheses. I believe the parenthetic address is old, and the modern address is 108 N. Grand. The numbers apparently had been changed fairly recently as of 1920. In any case, the former 506 no longer held a theater, but a variety store.
Harris & Co. built the $50,000 Olympic Theatre in downtown Okmulgee launching in 1910. George Haniotis took on the venue with ma major refresh and on October 23, 1913, he relaunched it as the Palace Theatre.
