The North Adams Center had two Kmarts throughout its history. The first Kmart there operated from November 22, 1981 until August 27, 1994 when it was relocated, and the second Kmart there operated from August 28, 1994 until June 2, 2002. Shortly after the second one opened in its current site, the first one was demolished to make way for a parking lot.

The Movieplex opened on January 27, 2007.

Saw Despicable Me here in 3D back in August, when I was in town with a friend. 3D ticket was cheap because they use the cheapest version of 3D(MasterImage 3D). This was the first showing of the day(12:15PM on a Sunday), and the theater was not cleaned from the night before. Other than that, no complaints, nice place, and the price is right.

True, Roger, this theater was never named “North Adams Cinema 6”. But they are basically one and the same – Cinema North simply moved to this location and expanded operations.

The North Adams Cinema 6 was on Curran Highway, in a strip mall building that was shut down by the Board Of Health who evicted the tenants and condemned the buildings. Those tenants include the cinema, Gringo’s Restaurant, a yarn outlet, and a few other small local businesses. But I digress.

Too bad about Cinema North. But I’m glad to hear the theater will get another shot.

The cinema, closed since October when Cinema North went out of business, reopened today as the North Adams Garden Movie Plex 8. Their website is http://www.northadams8.com

By the way, this theatre was never known as the North Adams Cinema 6. That was a different building elsewhere in town.

The chain for this theater is Cinema North Corporation. I goofed on that when I submitted the entry, sorry.
