It is now a laundry and drycleaning business. The building, which had large additions built onto it, is whitewashed and nondescript. Anyone who looks at it now, and is unaware of its history, would likely never guess that part of it had once been a movie theater. The only visual clue to its past, if you know what you’re looking for, is a distinctive, elevated ‘art moderne’ shape to one end of the otherwise flat roofline where the long-gone marquee once was.
What is the current use of the building now?
