This is a spacious studio apartment with all new appliances and beautiful hardwood floors. You won't know what to do with all of the space! This unit – in what was once an old theatre – has real character and charm, and puts you right in the center of the thriving Cherokee Arts District. You will be just a short walk away from coffee shops, art galleries, markets, parks and excellent Mexican food. This Loft is located in a commercial and residential mixed use building which includes the 714 Lounge as a Bar and sits next to The Golden Record as an Event Space with Concert Venue options!?The apartment is located in the historic Cherokee Theater, which was built in 1911 by the Vaudeville Theater Company. In 1916 Fred Wehrenberg took over the theater operations and it became known as the “New Cherokee Theater”. The New Cherokee Theater closed at the end of 1930 and the building was converted to commercial use. The following year the Wehrenberg's Southside Amusement Company opened the Cherokee Bowling and Billiards on the second floor, which later became Cherokee Q M Bowling Alleys and finally the Cherokee Lanes Bowling Alley. Cherokee Lanes closed around 1962 and the Southside Amusement Company sold the building in 1968.?The building is perhaps best known as the home of the Proper Shoe Store, which opened in the building in 1940 and closed in 2002. While other department stores, such as J. C. Penney's and Fairchild's, operated for decades on Cherokee Street, Proper Shoe Store is the only one that survived into the 21st century, having been in continuous operation for over sixty years. Also known as “Milton Mandel's Proper Shoe Store,” the building was also home to Mandel's Style Shop, which sold women's clothing during the 1950s and 1960s.
