Fails GNG, not on National Register of Historic Places listings in Montgomery County, Maryland, so citation's veracity is unclear. South Nashua (talk) 18:01, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Just another non-notable shopping centre. Ajf773 (talk) 08:54, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Silver Spring Historic District includes a number of buildings I would consider suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, including the J.C. Penney Building (now the Fillmore) and the Silver Theater. The full application to listing as a State Historic Site is here. The shopping center as a shopping center doesn't seem notable, nor is it really part of the historic district. A redirect to the theater is possible, but not necessary, I think.

  • Comment. This building complex gets its non-trivial coverage for the theater, which already has a Wikipedia article. The historic designation appears to be local. Only routine coverage as a shopping center. "Silver Theatre and Shopping Center" might rate a mention in the theater article, but not a standalone article. • Gene93k (talk) 15:10, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
