Here is my contribution…the Concourse Theatre…I saw Robert Walker in Private Hargrove here. Ritch
I cannot remember whether it was there that I saw “One Summer of Happiness” with Folke Sundquist and Ulla Jacobsson in 1954. I had a pen pal send me Olof Ekström’s book Sommardansen in Swedish, which I still have and have never been able to read because I don’t speak Swedish. Maybe somebody can tell me if it was there that it played.
The Concourse Theatre was in operation by August, 1916, when it was advertised for sale along with an adjacent property in The Sun:
Mr. Judis’s theater project at this site had been noted in the November 20, 1915, issue of The American Contractor: Herman Gronenberg and Albert J. H. Leuchtag were prolific architects, having filed 309 new building applications in the city from 1910 to 1931, but little is known about them. The firm was dissolved when Gronenberg died in 1931.
