Originally this building was the
United Artists Theatre, designed by architectural firm Eisen & Walker, opened in 1931. It was operated by United Artists/Fox Theatres.
In 1960 an ill-conceived renovation covered the original art deco façade with metal panels and removed a portion of the façade and original marquee. The theater closed in 1990 and was empty until 1997.
Under new management in 1997 the building underwent a renovation and restoration. The front Façade was restored, minus the theatre overhang/marquee and the vertical sign portion that had been demolished in the 1960 change. The interior of the building underwent renovation and was converted into the retail store, Angels School Supply.
