Sad but inevitable news: The Beaver Valley Cinema was demolished on December 11, 2015 to clear the site for ‘future development’. Here is a link to one article referencing the razing:

I worked there for most of the period from 1984 thru 1992, and I’m certain that the seat count listed is incorrect. Houses 1, 3, 4 & 6 had at least 450 seats each (the two center houses, 3 & 4, had a few more seats than the end houses 1 & 6), while the small houses 2 & 5 were around 300 seats each. So the total seat count was at least 2500 seats for the complex.
