For the temporary location, the 1930 maps are not digitized, and there does not seem to be an armory currently. I did find a newspaper article saying a new armory was constructed in 1928. It seems to have been replaced in the ‘50s.

Needs to be listed as demolished. The current structure is a chintzy cinderblock thing from maybe the ‘80s at oldest. The 1915 Sanborn shows a capacity of 960. The auditorium was pretty large, and the balcony was very deep, the opening forming almost a perfect circle.
