Los Angeles Movie Palaces has an
updated page on the Union Theater
The building permit says architect Frank L Stiff designed the "moving picture theater" for Union Square Investment Company in 1910.
Before construction commenced, a preexisting house was relocated from No. 1122 W 24th to 1437 W 36th St where it remains (unfortunately stuccoed).

BTW, The 24th Street Theater was built in 1920 as, as you might have guessed, a public garage.
I agree, the homes around there
are nice, mostly from last century's aughts.
