Not notable business. Covid-19 has caused a lot of closures. The theater- 'Over the years, it developed a reputation as the place to see movies that weren’t available at the chain theaters, such as Oscar nominees and other acclaimed independent films.' Doesn't make it notable. Art movie theaters are not rare. There's one less than ten miles from my home that first opened for business in 1924[1]. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 23:50, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per GNG (disclaimer: stub creator). WP:BEFORE, all I had to do was a Google search for find sufficient sourcing. Historic theater and part of the Silverton Commercial Historic District. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 00:27, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see it is a contributing property of that historic district. I thought I remember some guidance regarding contributing properties and whether that on its own is enough for an article (barring other GNG considerations), but can't find it at the moment.

Sure, didn't mean to suggest being a contributing property meant automatic notability, and I've clarified I meant GNG above. Thanks! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 00:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notable and historic theatre. The fact that the nominator knows of another one is not a reason to delete. Andrew🐉(talk) 12:16, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Looks like a notable historic building, COVID seems to be a minor point in its history. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 23:07, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I squeaks past the GNG finish line. NPR [2] noticed them, I think there will probably be more // Timothy :: talk 05:27, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
