Thanks Lost Memory.
What crying shame to split up this theatre.
This opened on July 29th, 1949. Grand opening ad in photo section. Google Maps reviews are now giving this place better reviews since they did some updates on the theatre.
Miss that big screen at the Roosevelt. Saw such event movies as KING KONG, STAR WARS, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS, GREASE, SUPERMAN, ROCKY II, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, SUPERMAN II, STAR TREK II, INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM, INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, BATMAN and several others on that screen. It just isn’t the same.
November 9th, 1984 grand opening ad as a quad in photo section. The 3rd screen opened a week earlier.

Please update 606 seats
I always remember this theater as where I saw Star Wars in 1977. Also I stood in a very long line in 1980 to see The Empire Strikes Back on opening night. When I saw Tim Burton’s Batman a band played the 60’s theme song before the film.
Cool info and memory about Eleanor, Janis E.
