If you go to the Banner theater page, you will read an article in the LA Times from the mid 30s about Skid Row and how bad it was at that time. Kind of surprising.
LA Times on 3/15/81 advertises “Cine Reseda” as a Spanish language theater. Address is given as 1844 S. Sherman Way, which is obviously wrong as Sherman Way goes east and west. I’m reasonably certain that this is an AKA for the Reseda Theater.

Status should be closed/demolished.

Thanks for the info.
It was still around in 1983. Does anyone know when it closed and when it was demolished?
Advertised as the New Allen in the LA Times in January 1983.
Advertised at 5306 Melrose in 1983. I haven’t seen a 1960s listing as of yet, but I will keep looking.
I think this was a typo – there was a Park at 710 S. Alvarado at that time. Please disregard.
LA Times advertises the Park Theater at 710 S. Broadway in 1981. Can someone give me the AKA for this? Thanks.
