Not much known about this Strand Theatre (not to be confused with the smaller Strand on Girard Avenue).

Opened in 1914 and closed in 1971.
Just a big parking lot there but you can see the footprint.
The September 14, 1916, issue of Engineering News had an article about a Stratford Theatre at Germantown Avenue and Venango Street (Google Books scan.) The article described the construction of the concrete girder supporting the theater’s proscenium arch. As the Strand is the only theater at that intersection listed at Cinema Treasures, I’m wondering if this house opened as the Stratford?
