It was to the right of Walgreens. Originally, what is now the big filipino/japanese restaurant was St. Augustine’s church, while they were raising money for the church. The movie theater was one or two doors down. I drove by there and was trying to figure it out, its one of the storefronts with the half-brick facade. The interior has been completely gutted. There have been several tenants over the years. Probably the shoe guy at the end would know, he’s been there since the center was built. All I remember about that place was that they had black and white wallpaper of your old time movie people, laurel and hardy, charlie chaplin. Anyone remember the Kool Cigarette midnight movie series?
I believe that the theater that was picketed was not the Laurel, but the smaller one north on Laurel where Le Boulanger now is…that was once a small art house, that for a while was showing porn.
