El Teatro Puerto Rico. I remember a Host by the name of Freedie Baez.
Who would introduce the star of Puerto Rico or Latin America back in the 1970’s. I saw Iris Chacon, La lupe, Tito Puente, El Puma, along with tons of Cowboy movies. I was located by brook ave. It is now another Universal church of Christ.

About the origins of the Cine Puerto Rico on Ponce de Leon Avenue; it goes back to 1925, when it was built by as a silent movie house by renowned architect, Pedro De Castro for “United Theater”. Owner was Lloveras and the Architectural Style and facade was Art Déco. For the first decades of the century it was considered as one of San Juan’s finest.

Any pictures of the inside? I went into the website several times (www.elteatropuertorico.com) but it was under construction and now the web shows the Club Lazer in Old San Juan. The pictures are of club customers, nothing on the Puerto Rico. Andres.

The theater inside is still very intact. It has the stage and the balcony pretty good and original condition. The projection booth was renovated to put the dj and sound equipment.
