Function should be changed. This is office suites. The building was built between 1914 and 1922 as a garage, and still has that function on the 1936 map. Sometime between 1936 and 1948, St. Nicholas Ave was renamed to Broadway. The street to the south, which had already changed from Iron to 8th to 9th, became Central.
According to the NRHP Registration Form for the Siloam Springs Downtown Historic District, the building in which the Grand Theatre was later located was built around 1920 as a commercial structure. The Grand operated in the 1940s and 1950s, and was used as a bowling alley during the 1960s. The front and the faux mansard roof are modern alterations, but the dentilated and corbeled brick cornice along the Center Street side is original.
