Bow Tie Management is the operating company of Bow Tie Cinemas and BTM Cinemas.

Bow Tie Management appears to be a new company for operating this theater based upon their website only containing this theater. I initially thought it was going to be related to the Bow Tie Cinema chain that operates in NY and some other states in the Northeast, but it seems completely disconnected despite the similarity of name.

AMC closed this location after business on 8/21/22. Bow Tie Management will be reopening the Dutch Square 14 on 9/1/22!

This opened on December 19th, 1997 by General Cinemas. Grand opening ad in the photo section.

The twin theater was located where Ruby Tuesday currently stands on the south end of the mall parking lot. The current theater is attached to the mall on the site of the former Tapp’s department store that was torn down.

I moved to Columbia in October of 1997, just before this opened. Wasn’t the twin cinema at the current Ruby Tuesday’s location? Or did they just have the sign there?

Having walked through the theatre yesterday I have to assume this is an entirely new build. A perfectly symetrical 14 plex with 7 screens to the left and 7 to the right.

Knew you weren’t Chuck because Columbia is a forgotten city on Ct.Merry Christmas.

This location is under a management deal so the landlord owns the actual theatre but AMC operates it for a fee.

Wow, someone commented on a Columbia theatre,Iremember when it opened as a Twin,I bet Chuck sure isn’t from Columbia.

So what’s your point? Is it a different theater, or not?

Was this really a newly-built theater, or was it just an expansion of the twin? I’ve noticed with Mike Rivest’s work, he frequently has confused an expansion with that of a new build.

At one time there was Dutch Square Twin Theatre.Pretty nice theatres not to be a major chain. I think where this 14 screen monster is at use to be the home of anice twin theatre.

This was opened by General Cinemas on December 19th, 1997. Did AMC taken it over in 2002 or before.
