Part of either the Georgia or Story Theatre chain, the East Point was a charming little neighborhood theatre where moms would drop their kids off for the Saturday matinee, assured that whatever was being screened would meet with their approval. After the theatre closed, a pipe organ was installed in auditorium and the site was used for private screenings and events. Both the theatre and the entire block it resided on were demolished in sometime during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
