The Crest 3 is the yellow building on the left at 112 N. Washington Street and was designed as a new-build theater by Robert Boller of Kansas City opening in 1947. It adjoins the (Otto) Gerhardt Building which - technically - is a different building with a different lineage built 15 years earlier. (Noting the roof-line of each structure, you see a difference in style between the two.)
As the Heartland Community Theatre has really aligned itself with 108 North Washington / the Gerhardt Building, technically, it should be decoupled from the New Uptown (in planning stages) / Go-Sho Theatre / Crest Theatre and this entry should be retitled as the Crest Cinema 3 at 112 N. Washington in my opinion.
