The Washington Theater opened in 1928, and was closed in 1933. It is listed in the 1945 Film Daily Yearbook as closed with seating for 400.

The opening date that I found for the Washington Theater is April 8, 1928. I think this theater can be listed as closed. I can't find any other name for this theater and it appears that it didn't make it past 1940.

Header should be Closed/Demolished - building destroyed by fire.
