Robert Kitts designed this Neo-Classical theatre for Henry C. Jensen, a German brickmaker who later developed recreation/commercial and residential properties. An early work in the Jensen's real estate empire, the Palace Grand Theatre was torn down probably before World War II. It typified Jensen's preference for erecting mixed-use, recreational/commercial buildings.
In 1923, Turner, Dahnken and Langley Company, which later became a core of the conglomerated Fox-West Coast film-exhibiting circuit, purchased the Palace Grand from Henry C. Jensen, and renamed the venue the the T D & L Theatre.
Demolished.
