Rex Theatre building (January 2016)
The building was originally constructed in the 1920s; however, a hurricane in 1932 caused a fire that gutted the building. A local Carrabelle resident opened a theater that was heavily dependent on soldiers from nearby Camp Gordon Johnson, which closed in 1946. In 1970 the building was sold to a local bank. (CT) One can still see the faded painting and a drive-through window on Avenue B indicating the building’s use as a bank.
In January 2016, the building was empty.
