Correct address is 5434 S Tacoma Way. Union ends at 47th. It used to merge with Broadway (now called Tacoma), and keeps the Union name on the 1912 map. The building is still there, rather shabby, and the theater space is a Vietnamese restaurant.
Address would now be 1518 MLK Jr. Way. The volume containing that area is missing from the LOC site for 1912, but the 1950 update shows a large concrete building of 2 stories, split into two storefronts. 1518, the northern half, is in use as a church. The location is where the police station is today.
I suppose it’s possible, but the building was the same size before it became a theater. It’s more likely that the construction and expansion of neighboring buildings meant the end had to be shortened to allow entry into the small lot behind the buildings.
I added a map view. Screwed up on my visit here and missed this entire block. The livery stable is the location of the Strand, which began construction sometime in 1923.

If this still exists, it’s the Dollar Tree at 3230.
Address is 108.
Address is wrong, it’s 340 Granby.
Needs to be listed as demolished. Proper address should be on E Liberty.
The front of the building is completely trashed. Only the portion where the marquee was mounted has any detail left.
Demolished sometime after 2017.
Long ago demolished.
Demolished. Ugly modern buildings and parking lots on that side of the block.
Needs the status updated.

Long demolished. This area is a wasteland of parking garages and some new condos.
Address is wrong. It’s at 5131 Nannie Helen Burroughs Ave, NE. Gutted and turned into housing.
1,000 seats for such a small town, even with a lot of tourist traffic, seems pretty ridiculous. Maybe they came to their senses.

This is almost identical to the Princess in Murfreesboro, TN.
Should have a picture of this, but I skipped the entire block either by accident or because the morning sun was bad.
The address is right, but the marker is off by a few miles.
Apparently, this building replaced an older theater (probably live only) which had burned.
