The Brook Theater, now known as the Brook Arts Center, built by local developer Alexander Morecraft, opened its door on January 9, 1927, as a vaudeville house. The theater was designed by architect W. H. Lehman of Newark, NJ, and Interior Designer Vincent Marilette of New York. The Brook Theater was considered an architectural masterpiece. The foyer adorned with marble walls, stained glass Tiffany chandeliers hung from the ceiling, and wall sconces illuminated the gold-framed billboard arches and beveled mirrors accents. Guests were welcomed into the Grand Lobby by a crimson red carpet and a Louis XIV design walls of marble leading to the luxurious lounge, which accommodated period chairs, marble fireplaces, and an Art Nouveau decorative water fountain.
