kencmcintyre commented about Optic Theatre on Apr 1, 2006 at 7:51 am

I was watching the first season of Hill Street Blues on DVD last night. Quite a few episodes were filmed in downtown Los Angeles. I noticed the Optic twice, and the Regent once. At one point, two cops were filmed talking in their car as they drove north on Main. If you slow down the speed, you can see every business on Main between 7th and 4th circa 1981.

Good idea.

I guess it depends on your interpretation. Timelines generally start at the beginning and go to the end. If it says Timeline – 1980-closed, I am assuming that’s a chronological progression. I could be wrong, but it’s hard to tell.

No, it opened in 1980 and closed at some point later on. I know that not many drive-ins opened in the 70s and 80s, but that’s what the source says.

The theater was opened at a cost of $50,000, according to some old newspaper advertisements.

An ad in the Freeman, an African-American newspaper, circa 1917, shows the address as 3451 South State Street. The ad describes the theater as “The Home of Colored Vaudeville”.

This photo is a Rialto theater in Florida. There is a vague resemblance to the old picture posted by Lost Memory, but the top of the buildings don’t match. This Rialto may be a new building designed to look like a classic theater:
