The Fifth Avenue’s auditorium was tucked behind a two-story retail/apartment block that fronted on the south side of West 5th Avenue. The theater, stores and apartments were part of the McNair Building. The theater was associated with the Allied Buying and Booking Circuit, Chicago.
This building is now demolished.
Sad looking marquee.
The 5th Avenue was also served as distribution offices for the Chicago Tribune and Sun Times. I used to pay my newspaper bills there in the late 50s and early 60s.
