Bryan – just want to thank you for the various links/ photos you provide. They are great. Was in the Garrick just once. As a kid saw “THE 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD”. Loved the movie but sitting in the balcony, loved the ceiling and walls almost as much!
The new Goodman Theater is indeed on this site. The Thompson State of Illinois building was the site of the Sherman Hotel.
Your concluding phrase, “Ironically, the garage itself, was demolished to make way for Helmut Jahn’s State of Illinois building.” The theater was located immediately west of the old Woods Theater and was demolished in the Goodman Theater project. In fact, the Goodman Theater stands on the site of four old theaters, the Harris, the Selwyn, the Woods and the Garrick (Schiller).
