This small, early theater opened in 1912 on N. Cicero Avenue near W. Dakin Street, in the Six Corners commercial district of the Portage Park neighborhood. The Grayland Theatre was closed in February 1929. Today, the building houses a retail business.

most peculiarly even though not used as a theatre per se for what—85 years? the building owners recently restored the Grayland Theatre insignia, which sits very prominently directly over the retail establishment name, longtime 6-corners big&tall menswear store Rasenick’s. this can be seen in certain photos, but really stands out when you drive by in person. i’d like to see others still extant to follow suit. fluevog/wicker park theatre would be an excellent candidate
