The shop on this theater’s site today, Not Another Pottery Studio, uses the address 5052 Eagle Rock Blvd. The parcel viewer at the L.A. County Assessors Office website is no longer functional on any of my web browsers, so I can’t find out when the current building was built, but It is known that the United Theatre, last known as the Sierra Theatre, opened just up the block at 5058 Eagle Rock in 1922, and the Family Theatre, if it was still open then, most likely closed at that time.
The 1924 L.A. City Directory, the first edition to include listings for newly-annexed Eagle Rock, lists a Central Avenue Garage at 5052 Eagle Rock Boulevard. The garage had obviously been opened before Los Angeles annexed Eagle Rock and changed the name of Central Avenue to Eagle Rock Boulevard, so the theater probably vacated the space by 1923 at the latest.
