A Photographic Gallery or Photo Gallery opened at Olentangy Park in 1906. It was "equipped for day and night work."[1] The attraction only lasted a year, burning down in a fire that started in the Theatorium. The one-story frame was "rendered useless," and the fire department estimated the damage to the gallery at $200$6,840 in 2025 dollars and overall damage more than $5,000$170,992 in 2025 dollars.[2]
