This is actually the parking lot for Kenwood Academy High School.

The records of the American Terra Cotta Company indicate that the Beach Theatre was designed by the architectural firm of Newhouse & Bernham (Felix M. Bernham. I believe that Bernham has sometimes been conflated with Daniel Burnham, a much better known Chicago architect of the period.)

From the Chicago Tribune, 12/17/22:

HYDE PARK TO HAVE ITS FIRST NATIONAL BANK
Syndicate Buys Beach Theater: $100,000.

Hyde Park is to have its first national bank. The Beach Theater building at the northeast corner of Harper avenue and Hyde Park boulevard, directly across from the Hyde Park hotel, was sold yesterday.
