The Stratford Theater opened in 1913 as the Becker Theater owned by the Becker Brothers. The Becker Theater was expanded to 800 seats and became the Stratford Theater which closed around 1963. There is now a Rite Aid drugstore at this address.

The Rite Aid was built on the southeast corner of 7th and Dickinson after the Stratford Theater was razed. You can see that the theater extends almost to the street while the drugstore, a much smaller building, is set well back in the property with parking in front.
Lets look at the Google photo:

The Rite Aid parking lot is on the northeast corner of 7th and Dickinson. The Stratford Theater has been demolished, in any case.
