The Avenue Theatre was a prime movie theatre during its heyday. Built in the 1930's, the building also had a hotel and an office space.

It was renovated in the 1950's and live performances were held here for many years. The Avenue Theatre closed in 1997 and was demolished in 2006.

the theatre was designed by Archt. Juan Nakpil. Nakpil became national Artist for Architecture in the Philippines. the grand lobby of the theatre is treated with faux marble finish.
