I went to Pacific Boulevard Elementary School in the early ‘70s and this theatre was on the route to and from school.
So were the California and Park theatres.
The building looks like it’s still standing – on GoogleMaps you can clearly see where the roll-up door was the entrance.
Southwest Builder & Contractor of May 27, 1921, said that the plans for this theater were being prepared by Walnut Park architect A.H. McCulloh.
Yes, it looks like the building is still standing from the overhead shots of the building.
