The Washington opened under Central Amusement Co. in 1913. A 1917 refresh to the plans of architect Moise H. Goldstein improved ventilation for the Sobel-Richards-Shear venue. United Theatres added sound to remain viable.
The Washington ended service on June 13, 1937 with “The Last of Mrs. Cheyney” as the last of its offerings. Fire destroyed the venue - United’s third blaze finale of the year - that day. Its remnants - just its walls - were soon demolished
