In the Chicago Tribune the City appears in movie theater listings until 1950, by 1956 an electronics store is listed at this address.
Originally operated by Hyman & Hirsch
This is from Boxoffice magazine in November 1946:
CHICAGO-G&E Theatre Corp. has acquired the Lincoln Theatre and the City Theatre, 3031 N. Lincoln. The latter will be managed by S. J. Angelos. The theatres were previously owned and operated by the CVN circuit.
Here is a 1982 photo:

This building still retains its original, operational stud lighting on the facade, which makes it somewhat unique.
