Introduced along with the new regional Town Center Mall and opening on March 5, 1982, the UA the Movies at Town Center offered upgraded surroundings for UA’s standard multiplex design.
Muvico assumed management in 1996, closing in 2000 when the new Palace 20 debuted to the east. Demolition followed, and a new build was completed for Maggiano’s Restaurant.

Grand opening announcement (Poor quality) at View link
I stand corrected: opened in early 1982.
The “unique” 20-speaker Dolby Sound system was only in their largest auditorium (typical of UA multiplexes in South Florida, along with the occasionally difficulties of snagging a parking spot).
I posted an grand opening ad from March 5th, 1982.
I worked at Movies at Town Center from 1989 through 1993, and it was probably the most fun job I’ve ever had…and I made tons of friends who I’m still in touch with today! I think I was paid $4.25/hour when I started there while in college, stayed there after graduating in ‘91 and became an assistant manage there. The fun began after closing time, especially on weekend nights…hanging out in the lobby, listening to music with friends, and getting into some trouble – great times!
Bob Northrop who formerly managed the Surf and Normandy theaters in Miami Beach went on to become manager of this location in the 1990s.
Bob Northrop was my Assistant Manager when I was first hired, then he became the manager. He was replaced in 1992.
