The Roxy Theatre opened by 1940 and appeared to still be in operation in 1957 and up until the time the Rio Theatre came on line. The 1951 Film Daily gives an address of 1040 L Street, but this was either a mistype or the street name was later changed.

This item from the January 14, 1937 issue of Film Daily must be about the Roxy:

“Sweet Home, Ore.— The first motion picture theater to be erected here will be opened early in March by George Gessler, who has let contract to Western Theatre Equipment Co., Portland, to fully equip the 450-seat house.”
As of 1953, both the Roxy and the Rio were being operated by Jesse E. Jones.
