This lawsuit involves labor trouble at the theater in 1998. It was alleged that a flare was tossed in the theater, causing it to be evacuated.

Here is a 1964 photo from the LAPL. The theater is showing Spanish films. Governor Pat Brown is the forgotten-looking man with the glasses.

It looks like the space is now a Chinese restaurant called Top of the World Buffet.

I’m not arguing with you. I am skeptical of most of the things I read on the internet.

This article gives an opening date of 1905 as the Standard Vaudeville Theater:

No, I was looking at the Google photo which was copyrighted in 2008. Perhaps the wine store moved recently. Clintonville Electric is at 3367 N. High, which is next to the theater, so I think 3379 N. High is correct.

There is a wine store in the lobby. Function should be retail.

There is a Wendy’s at 315, then a parking lot, then a florist at 319. The florist looks to be carved out of a private home. This theater may have been razed, if the address was 317 Ridge Road.

Maybe it’s out in front with the sofas.

I found it. On Google it ended up to be 2488 Gratiot. That’s what was confusing me. I was a few blocks down the street. Thanks for clearing that up.

Thanks. Something is amiss, though. If you follow the Google arrow down the street to the tan building, you can see it full on. It doesn’t look anything like the 6/27/05 photo.

Gardella Furniture is still at 2306 Gratiot, according to their website, www.gardellafurniture.com I checked out the Google map thoroughly and confirmed that the view was the correct part of Gratiot Street. I didn’t see the building, though. The building at 2310 doesn’t look anything like the photo posted on 6/27/05. I even went up and down the street with no luck. I’m stumped.

No trace of this theater when I drove by the location today.

I just drove by this theater today. I pointed it out to my wife, along with the Southside and the Congress. Kind of a mini-CT tour.

Sorry about that. There is now a Goodwill store on the first floor, so retail would be the appropriate function.

Which island is this? I saw an open multiplex on the north side of Oahu last year. That was in a shopping center as well.

Sure looks that way. Nobody’s perfect.
