Located near the Langston Golf Course on Benning Road at 26th Street, the Langston opened in 1945. It was one of a number of movie houses designed by architect John J. Zink in the DC area.

The Langston operated into the late 70s, and was afterward razed. A fast food restaurant is on the site today.
