Still open in 1962.
Google Street View shows the Roosevelt Theatre at 38 Sycamore Street. Some years ago, plans were afoot to renovate and reopen the theater, but those plans appear to have fallen victim to the pandemic. Some photos of the building and a few renderings and floor plans can still be seen on the web site of arcollab, the firm that was providing the plans for the project.
I found information that the Roosevelt Theatre and the Jefferson Theatre are two different theaters. The Roosevelt Theatre opened on April 29, 1920, and the nearby Jefferson Theatre opened in the 1910s. The Jefferson then became the Vista Theatre in July 1915 before becoming the Reliance Theatre around 1920.
Opened on April 29, 1920.
