Summary
The original building, constructed in 1909-10 by L. C. Marquis, was Scottsbluff's first opera house. The brick commercial building housed retail space on the street level with the opera house auditorium on the second floor. In 1916 after the opera closed, the building was remodeled to provide additional commercial and office space. This remodeling gave the structure its present general Neo-Classical Revival character. In 1936 the building was purchased by Wade Flynn and became known as the Flynn Building.
