Viking Theatre

Originally opened in 1925 to replace an earlier Astoria Theatre that burned down in 1922, the Astoria Theatre later was renamed the Viking Theatre. Later, after it closed as a movie theater, the building became home to the Viking Roller Rink. Today, the former theater building houses a bank.

I’m not too sure if the bank actually WAS the theatre?

If the theatre really was turned into a rink, I’m not sure the building is still standing…?
