Google Street View of July 2024 shows this theatre still surrounded by construction fencing and part of the cornice having fallen off. No changes since 2017.

The Strand was one of several Muskegon area theaters designed for Paul Schlossman by Detroit theater architect C. Howard Crane.

I lived in an apartment on the second floor of the store block opposite this building around 1990. I once looked into the the theater through the entrance at the right; the theater was being used then at as warehouse space by a furniture store. At that time, the seats were still in place as was the screen.
