I would like to have seen this theater when it was still standing. It’s a pity that more effort is not made to reuse the buildings instead of demolishing them.
I was trying to figure out when this theater was razed. It looks like the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose opened in 1987, so presumably the Fox Padre made it into the 80s. Any additional information would be appreciated.
Could be. Maybe Brazil is a chain of agencies in Alabama. Address is unknown at this point.
Got nothing better to do. Slow day at the office.

Thanks for the photo. The Brazil Insurance Agency is located at 712 18th Street North, so presumably the former theater is also on 18th Street.
I have to go out there tomorrow, but since the theater is now a parking lot, no need for any photos. Too bad.
Here is the UCI site. Tacaruna is the shopping mall wherein the theater is located.

I don’t denigrate the importance of silent movies. I just don’t like watching them.
