Northtown Cinemas was a sister to Southtown Cinemas. Together they were the first triplexes in southeast Wisconsin. It was run as a discount first run theater with all digital sound. It still had the three large cavernous auditoriums plus five newer stadium style spaces. It opened on December 24, 1976.

It was closed on October 28, 2012.

It opened in 1976. I was there the first day of operation. I saw a Disney film called “The Shaggy D.A.” the day the Northtown opened.

This theater is now out of business. What a shame.

The three original auditoriums were very large and nice. I will miss those auditoriums.
