There is a hamburger stand on the odd side of N. 29th between 2329 and 2351. No trace of the theater remains.

Status should be closed/demolished.

Google is good, though a lot of confused or poor infomration. A better way to verify locations is through insurance atlases of the era, which can be found here.

It’s been a year since I asked if anyone had a photo of the 29th Street Palace Theater. I’m sure someone has access to one. Please share?

Waiting two years for a photo of this theater. I guess no one can help?
