Before Hoyts took over this location in the late nineties, it was owned by Canad and had been around for a long time. I saw Return of the Jedi here in 1983 when it was only a four screen theater. In 1985 or so the building was renovated and the five additional, smaller screens were added. I can’t find any information about Canad — or when the theater originally opened anywhere, unfortunately.
