My father, Dr. White, owned the building from around 1970 through the late 1990s when he sold it to Elia’s Pet Shop. He ran a vaccination clinic there well into his mid-80s. He sold it to another vet around 2008. He passed away in 2011 at the age of 90. He bought it from another vet, Dr. Helfer who owned it for many years. My understanding is that it was a private residence prior to becoming a vet hospital in the 40s or 50s. Never heard of it ever being a theater. It was called A&A Dog & Cat Hospital.
I lived a block away from the age of 4 to 7. We used to go every Saturday afternoon. 2 movies plus a serial in between. All for 35 cents.
