As Lippert had Overpeck work on three projects in a short period, it’s possible that he also designed others of the theaters Lippert was building during the brief time when Overpeck had an individual practice- from about 1958 to 1961, as near as I’ve been able to determine.A West Michigan theater completed a $3 million investment to make the holiday movie season more comfortable. On page 14 of the same issue of Boxoffice linked above is an article about Robert Lippert’s twin Riviera and Capri Theatres in Los Angeles, and that project was attributed to architect John P. The only major difference I can see between the Buena Park as pictured in this Boxoffice feature from 1959 and this 1984 photo of the Corbin is that the Corbin had a traditional marquee, probably added later as it is mounted on columns rather than on the building itself. Presumably it too was designed by Overpeck. In 1969 he associated with a major architectural firm to develop Marina City and the Marina City Club”The “identical” theater opened by Lippert the same year as the Buena Park was apparently the Corbin Theatre in Tarzana. Partnership with Bob Kite, their firm designed the John Thomas Dye School after the Bel-Air fire. Two years later he opened his own office in Pacific Palisades, designing custom residences.
