The Lake Theater was on 4th Avenue, rather than 4th Street, which is entirely residential. The theater was on the west side of 4th Avenue a few doors north of 2nd Street. Google doesn’t provide a good street view, and Bing maps doesn’t have a proper bird’s eye, either. Although satellite view shows that there is currently a building on the theater’s site, I can’t be sure which of the buildings on that section of the block it is, or if it’s old or of modern construction.
