I usually go around to the back, but it was just too hot today. I wanted to get back in my car and crank up the AC.

Now you’ve been warned twice.

The UFO guy headlining at the Teatro states on his poster “The Silent Invasion – They are Already Here”. I guess we’ve been warned.

I figured if it was a theater it would have been added already. Thanks for the information.

This building is currently at 11600. For some reason they put 11160 as their address. I know that it’s 11600 because 11603 is across the street. It’s not the theater, obviously:

It was still there today, baking in the 101 degree heat. Photos to follow.

kencmcintyre commented about Towne Theater on Apr 13, 2008 at 3:28 am

This location is now a very large shopping mall just east of the 710 Freeway. The theater has been obliterated.

kencmcintyre commented about Bell Theatre on Apr 13, 2008 at 3:26 am

No trace of the theater remains today.

kencmcintyre commented about Teatro los Pinos on Apr 13, 2008 at 3:23 am

I was in this theater today. The cashier was nice enough to let me walk around and take pictures. The interior shots are not too good, but some of the others came out OK. Interestingly enough, just a block down the road was a building that I swear was a theater at one time. I will post those photos as well in case someone recognizes it.

kencmcintyre commented about South Gate Drive-In on Apr 13, 2008 at 3:20 am

I drove by this location today. It’s heavy industrial, and looks like it has been for some time. I’m not sure where the drive-in would have been, unless it was off to the back somewhere.

kencmcintyre commented about Allen Theater on Apr 13, 2008 at 3:19 am

The Allen is closed. I will post some photos later.

Architect should be Robert G. Kitts, as noted in the introduction.
