This was renamed North Valley Plaza cinemas in November 14th, 1992, and closed on July 5th, 1998, as everyone went to the newer Cinemarks.
UA North Valley Cinemas 10 07 Jul 1998, Tue Enterprise-Record (Chico, California) Newspapers.com
The UA Cinema I-II-III held its open house on August 3rd, 1972, and its first movies the next day. Grand opening ads posted.
The August 28, 1972, issue of Boxoffice Magazine said that United Artists had opened its U.A. Cinemas I, II, and III on August 4 that year.
As can be seen in the photo at the Butte Bible Fellowship website, this rather plain and boxy 1970s-style former triplex has been altered (no pun intended) at one end, so it looks like a church, but the theatre’s original entrance is recognizable around the corner.
