The Apex Theatre is one of a handful of surviving movie houses that still shows movies in Baltimore. The Apex is now showing X rated films, and has been since 1972. Fells Point had the Leader Theatre, the Broadway Theatre and the Cluster Theatre, but today only the Apex survives.
The Apex Theatre opened on July 1, 1942 with “Remember Pearl Harbor”, and while it is not the most attractive theatre to settle on Broadway, it is the only one that has survived.

The Apex is still open and I don’t know that it matters but it is owned by KMI Entertainment, Inc. Also there is a fairly new &-11 next door to the theatre.

The Apex DID try showing mainstream movies, circa 1981, as a bargain house. That didn’t last very long, and they went back to smut.
Chuck, that 7-Eleven has been there for at least 25 years.
