From Cinema Movie Treasures:

Originally opened as the Amazon Theater in 1928, for the Ackerman & Harris Circuit, this Spanish Colonial-style theater was designed by the Reid Brothers.

This 960-some seat movie house was last used as a church in the 1980’s. It has since been converted into a Walgreens.

Cinema Treasures has several old photos online and the online comments has links to many old Black & White Photos from the 1940's as well as color photos when the theater was known as the Apollo.
