The book “Flint 1890-1960” says this theater also contained a ballroom on its upper floors. It was demolished in 1952 and replaced with a Winkelman’s clothing store, which is what currently occupies the site that is being used as a restaurant.

This theater was in Highland Park, not Detroit. The site is currently an apartment building. Anyone know exactly what year it was demolished?
