The Laurel Theater is found at 4418 South Division in the Grand Rapids City Directory of 1928 and 1929. The next mention found was in a 1930 newspaper announcing that the Shields Brothers opened a garage in the “Laurel Theater Building”. In 1939, it became a bus depot. The building was demolished sometime after 1965, when it is shown intact in a real estate card photo.

The location of this theater is currently in the city of Wyoming, not Grand Rapids. Granted, Wyoming didn’t become a city until 1959, but this theater was never inside the GR city limits.

The location of this business is currently in the city limits of Kentwood, several miles south of the city of Grand Rapids.
