No, it doesn’t matter. I pointed out the clothing store to show that function should be retail.
Rite Aid is still listed, but that information could be outdated. The building may also be carved into separate businesses that use the same address.
Number seven on this list is a children’s clothing store that occupies at least part of the former theater:
