This used to be an AMC cinema, now its closed down, looks like the two rockets, should have blasted off.

"Cesar Pelli designed a Googie Cinema. The style is sometimes called ‘Raygun Gothic’, a term that was invented by the science fiction writer William Gibson. Here you can see why – it has a spiky verticality like Gothic architecture, but it also has a techno-futurist look." Text Source: (visit link)
