Opened in 1926 as a single screen theatre with a balcony, the theatre at that time was called the Blaine Theatre. The architectural firm was the Boller Brothers.
Due to instability, the decorative plaster work on the interior was removed in the 1950’s along with the stage house and rigging.
The balcony was later converted to a second screen and the theatre at that time was renamed the Cine 2 Theatre. It closed in 2001, and has since been demolished.

These exterior and (rare) interior shots uncover vaudeville roots for the Blaine Theatre. To view 1936 & 1940 photos type in word “blaine”…

The theatre building is still standing but vacant.
From looking at Google Maps, it appears as though this theater has been demolished.
The theater is standing if you look at this view from 3rd Street:

Once you try to zoom in, the building is reduced to a foundation.

Such a shame.
That is really strange the way the google is owrking on this one. When you hit the arrow on the botton of Third St. the theatre is there, you hit the upper arrow the theatre is gone.
Header should be changed to demolished.
This site proves that only the sloped slab of the Cine 1 & 2 (nee-Blaine) remains.
