I saw “Outland” and “Altered States” at these theater, also Raiders of the Lost Ark when it first came out. Lots of good memories. Here is a photo from the early eighties:

If you look at some of the entries for the downtown theaters, including the Main, Banner and others, you will see quite a few references to Gore theaters at the beginning of the twentieth century.

The exterior is rather plain. I didn’t realize that this was a former theater when I saw it today.

I took a walk around the building today. There’s a huge graffiti-style mural on the back wall. I couldn’t tell if this was sponsored or just vandalism.
