The Brandt Plaza Art theatre opened on March 24th, 1967 with “I, a Woman”. Grand opening ad as well as an ad from the New York Times February 12th, 1967 as well.

The Plaza Art reportedly had front doors taken from the Paramount in New York after it closed. It closed as a movie theatre in 1976.

The “ugly” little PLAZA ART gets a plug in a New York Times half-page ad for I, A WOMAN, apparently the opening feature on March 31, 1966.

I believe the Plaza Art was indeed a bank and returned to being a bank after it closed. Woody, your photo above looks like the Plaza Art.

this was the worst theatre in the world. Uncomforable seats. It was also a hangout for the elderly to get out of the heat. I think it was a department store at one time…and a bank.
