First, probably late 60's, early 70's, there were "adult movie houses", which were glorified "quarter" arcades, with little dirty, dark rooms, and a machine that would play about 10 minutes of a movie reel (usually silent and poor quality) for 25 cents. They really popped up all over the place. Next came "real" theaters (still pretty dirty and dark), in the "worst parts of towns", for showing full length adult movies. They drew more negative community reaction, for some odd reason, then the arcade types. However, by about 1975, video tape came to replace 8mm and Super 8 film and once that happened, porn was something you bought or rented to watch at home. It seemed like every "adult" theater evaporated from the planet. I cannot imagine that one still exists, except as a pure "retro" kind of "nasty nostalgia" thing.
