118 Main Street (or Main Avenue, as some listings call it) is now the address of a restaurant called The Sandbar. The building looks pretty old and has a small marquee on it, so I’m pretty sure it is the theater.

Pollock is another place where Google Maps is a mess. The map on our page puts the pin icon on a totally different Main Avenue located in North Dakota, several miles northwest of Pollock. An actual Google map of Pollock doesn’t give Main Street a name, but only the highway number 10, but using highway 10 in a Google Maps search doesn’t get you near the town, let alone theater. (/rant)

Anyway, here is a correct street view of the theater building. It’s on the north side of Highway 10 just east of B Avenue. I suspect that the theater occupied no more than half of the building, as the whole thing, which in satellite view looks to be about 50x120, could have accommodated way more than 200 seats.

Joe, does Google maps work differently in different areas? Google mapped right to the building for me. Google can be a pain in the rear sometimes. It will map for me but don’t map in the Street View in the header.

It should work the same for everybody, but what I get is this, which is the same spot in North Dakota that we’re getting on the map on this page.
