Airdome Theatre

A letter from E. M. Bannister, manager of the Airdome, was published in the September 26, 1914 issue of Moving Picture World. It read in part “This is the third season of the airdome, which seats 40O and cost $1,500 to fit up, as we had the best of everything, including weatherproof opera chairs and pitched floor.” A November, 1916 Sanborn map of Saugatuck shows the Airdome at what was then 313 Water Street, but today has the approximate address 326 Water Street. The location is actually south of the old Pavilion, not north.
