ca. 1943 Loew's Gates Theatre was part of Loew's Theater chain. The moviehouse opened on November 21st, 1921. Patrons saw Alias Ladyfingers with Bert Lytell, Hard Luck with Buster Keaton, and vaudeville acts on opening night. According to later photos, Loew's Gates suffered a similar fate to others of the franchise and switched box-office hits to screen X Rated films in its later years. The theater closed in 1977. The building is now home to the Pilgrim Baptist Church.
