Google’s street view shows a bowling alley at this intersection now. I wonder if it’s the same building, and it reverted to its earlier use after theater closed? Though perhaps the bowling alley’s old building became available for conversion to a theater in 1969 because that was when the bowling alley moved to the building it’s now in?
