Before the Twin Gables, there was a theater at this location back in the early 60’s (maybe earlier) called the Coral Way theater. I went there a number of times. It is actually in the heart of Coral Gables on Coral Way which was a ritzy shopping area back in the day.

I went to the Rosetta a lot as a kid. I think that it turned into an adult theater in the 60’s. There was also another place that was an adult theater in the sixites a little ways West on 79st called the Little River Art Theater. It also was originally a regular movie house.

This was actually a family drive in the 1950’s up until about 1964 or so.. There were so many mosquitoes that a truck used to drive between the rows spraying insecticide

I went there as a small child when it was a neighborhood movie theater. Admission was $.14. First movie I saw there was original War of the Worlds. I’m surprise it is stil there.
