The Paramount Theatre was a neighborhood theater until the palatial Seattle Theatre (later the Paramount Theatre) was built in downtown Seattle in 1928. It is unknown when this neighborhood theater changed its name, but it is likely to have happened by 1930, as it would have to when the larger theater was rechristened.

A Kimball 2/6 pipe organ, was installed in 1921. In 1924, when the Paramount upgraded to another Kimball 2/6 pipe organ, the earlier instrument was reinstalled in the Mission Theatre.

The theater is still in operation today under the Guild 45th name.
