Malco Theatre

Originally the Siegel Theater, it was renamed the Ritz Theater in July 1930 after a brief closure. In February 1951 it became the Malco Theatre, and following its final closure it became a church, but this has since vacated the building.

The theater was still around in 1963. It was part of the Malco chain then.

This hasn’t been demolished. It was a sad little church for some time, but looks abandoned.

If this really was the Ritz, and the photo is correct, there was an extensive remodel, probably post-WWII.
