rivest266 incorrectly believed it was 1968, but
Marina City pictured opened to tenants in 1963.
The square hotel portion on the left opened in 1964.
Other aspects of the buildings were completed by 1968.
I live in Chicago and ice skated at Marina City in the `60s.

Vicco Antique Mall has confirmed they are still open in the former Pastime Theatre building.
The Google street view is incorrect in it’s depiction of Main Street in Vicco.
Two 1937 photos added.
The Pastime Theatre was two doors to the right of the State Theatre in the photos.
The Pastime Theatre survived a March 11, 1938 fire that destroyed the neighboring 6 buildings to it’s left, including the State Theatre.
Still awaiting confirmation from Vicco Antique Mall as to whether the former Pastime Theatre building they occupied is still standing.
Update:
Address would have been 105 Main Street.
In looking at the two photos, the State Theatre being 2 doors down from the Pastime Theatre at 103, and the curve of the train tracks.
The street numbering goes up to the left of the Pastime Theatre.
Six buildings were destroyed in the March 11, 1938.
The Pastime Theatre survived.
Address is/was 103 Main Street.
The Pastime Theatre was owned by Tony Reda who also owned the State Theatre 2 doors down.
I set up a page for the State Theatre and will post a photo when it’s up on CT.
The Facebook page for Vicco Antique Mall had it’s last post in June 2020.
Street view shows a new house at that address.
I sent a message to the Vicco Antique Mall to ask if it is still standing.

Per JGKlein on the Norva Theatre page on August 19, 2017 at 10:47 am:
Across the street (from Norva Theatre) is “Hofheimer’s”, a shoe store at 325 Granby St. in Norfolk. This building was the location of the former Victoria Theatre, built in 1911 as a vaudeville/movie theatre. By 1916 it was renamed the Strand and operated as a full time movie theatre. As of 2017, the same building that was once the Victoria Theatre is still standing.
“Welcome Danger” released in the US October 12, 1929.

It appears to be about 40 miles West of Knoxville, and 80 miles North of Chattanooga.
