According to the Sellwood Bee, the Alpha Theatre, operated by Alfred Griessen, was located in the Strahlman Building. When Griessen built his own theater, the Star, the Alpha was renamed the Isis, which did close in 1924. Griessen’s Star Theater operated from 1911 to 1920 on the southwest corner of SE 13th and Spokane Streets.

It should be noted that the American Motion Picture Directory for 1914-1915 lists all three theaters in Sellwood at the same time.
