The Spanish Colonial style Sun Theatre on Lincoln Avenue near Fourth Street still shows first-run movies today. It was originally opened as the New Sun Theatre with seating for 1,000 in its single screen.
It was converted into a triple screen theatre in 1991.

This building must have had an extreme makeover. Compare that photo to the photo on Cinematour.
That’s interesting. The first photo is estimated to be from the late 70s. They don’t even look like the same building.
I don’t think its the same building. Its not your fault since you had no other photo to compare it to. The photo was probably mislabeled. I’m curious as to what theater the photo is showing.
Its still open. This is a recent ad.
This theatre was converted to a three plex in 1991. Here is news article on the Sun Theatre.

Chuck’s photo shows that the photo ken mc linked to and the photo CinemaTour has both depict the same theater. The Cinematour photo must be the most recent, and the front of the building was remodeled after the other two were taken- probably at the time the three-plex conversion was done in 1991. That corner tower is a dead giveaway, though. It’s clearly the same building in all three photos. It’s too bad they stripped off all that nice Spanish Colonial detailing.
