Description

This photograph, dated 1926,  is of the Temple Theater, and shows the interior of the movie venue.  It was located next to the National Hotel, on the south side East Grand River Avenue.

The Temple Theater opened in 1910. The Livingston Republican reported in 1911 that the Temple Theater had "enlarged the audience room and made other improvements".

The Temple Theater was purchased in 1913 by A. J. Moller of Detroit, and by Vernon Locey in 1921.  It remained open until the Howell Theater opened in December 1928.
