item 4-a is balboa theater. the business is a neighborhood theater that opened in 1926 in the outer richmond district. it was originally called the new balboa in order to distinguish it from a theater with the same name in the district. in 1978, it was converted to a two screen theater. the current owners bought it in 2012. the theater shows a definition of first run films and classics. item 4-b is fireside camera. the business was founded as an independent proto store in the fireside district. in the 1970's, photography became more commonplace, so fireside studios added retail and changed the name to fireside camera. as a -- as retail became a larger part of the business, salespeople were hired, including jack shim in 1976, edwinly in 1978, and spencer in 1984. item 4-c is house of bagels. the business opened in 1964 in the richmond district when there were no authentic bagels store in california. the recipe was brought here by sid nye chasey, a native new yorker. in addition to bagels, the bakery makes breads,
