Cineplex Odeon operated the venue for a while in the 80s as a first run house. They exited after opening their new Broadway 4 on the 3rd St. Promenade and competition increased from other nearby complexes.

Architect: Unknown

Seating: 600

Status: The theatre closed in 1990. It was then used for retail and was later demolished. There's now an office building on the site.
