Does anybody have any info on the Irving theater that was located at the southwest corner of irving and Pulaski? It was across the street from buffalo ice cream and was there until about 1970. A walgreens has been there now for about 8 years. Any info or photos would be great. Also what was there in the time between the theater and walgreens...Thanks!

Prior to the Walgreens, there was an Exxon-Mobil gas station there for a long time.
