The Park was built as an annex to 1336 Park Street and is today a restaurant. It was also the first vaudeville theater in Alameda (but was not next door to the Strand, they were actually several doors apart).

Corrections to my earlier post—-the Park’s address was 1338 Park Street, and it and the Strand were not only several doors apart, but there were two buildings (plus [at least today] a walkway[!]) between them.
