now part of miami-dade college. it closed due to competition from united artists/later muvico theaters and its availability to show first run features, as well as having a better interior

it eventually was closed down and turned into a church because there really wasnt any people traffic to it, since u had both the essex and circle theaters closeby. also, it was located on the corner of a one-way traffic route.

the theater eventually closed due to the united artists movie theater opening up a few blocks west of it back in 1996. the theater is now a private clinic.

@simon- actually it was opened a little further west of where the old zayre’s/ames dept. store stood about ½ block up. where zayres stood is now a mini-shopping center of sorts.
