A newish-looking church sits at this address now.
The Knoll is listed in the 1936 city directory, but not in the 1929 directory. It’s still listed in the 1956 directory, though at 6614 S. Western, but it’s gone by the 1960 edition. The only even number in the 6600 block listed in 1960 was the church on the corner (6608), still standing, which the assessor’s office says was built in 1955. My guess would be that Mount Tabor Baptist Missionary Church owned the whole block by 1960, although the big church building now in mid-block wasn’t built until 1972.
LA Times has listings from 1929-1959.
Boxoffice, Feb. 26, 1955: “The Knoll Theatre, operated for the past several years by the Harold Aaron estate, has been sold to Charles Tobox”
