All of you! Thanks for the comments. I am certain of the address and the theater’s location. Please see my Nov.7th comment. I’m merely trying to locate a photo of the building as it was the western most business of The Bunche Park Shopping Center in Opa-Locka, Florida.

The first movie I saw was at Bunche Theater. It was “TARANTULA”.. A huge spider that met his demise at the hand of some F-100 jet fighters. Scared me stiff!!! I sure would like to know if someone has a photo of the theater and/or the Bunche Park Shopping Center that it was a part of. By the way, the theater later became a bowling alley. .. sad. I spent many Saturday afternoons at matinees there. PLEASE IF ANYBODY HAS A PHOTO … ANOTHER THING! Bunche Park was located in unincorporated Dade County, bordered to the South by the Biscayne Canal, to the West by NW 27th Ave., to the North by 167th Street (now the Palmetto (826) and on the East by NW 17th Av. I was raised on 155th Street & 23rd Ave., just a block and a bridge crossing away. I could see the back of the theater from my front yard (across the canal).
