The theater existed from 1915-59 and eventually was razed. Although it had a capacity of 575 at one point, I found a second source that indicates just 476 seats.

The Arcadia Theatre opened in February of 1916. It was acquired in 1918 by Samuel M. Gould who had the Gould Theatre a block away and the Atlas Theater in his Gould Amusement portfolio. Gould’s local circuit would grow and contract over the years before officially disbanding in 1947. Gourd’s service to the Arcadia would end dying here while working on April 8, 1958. Mrs. Gould took over the theater first closing it at the end of December of 1958 and reopening it one last time on May 5, 1959 but apparently closing it permanently on July 4, 1959.
