The Paramount was built in 1934, joining a sister cinema at Mortdale (since demolished) and only four other picture theatres in the Kogarah/Hurstville region: the Odeon at Carlton, the Oatley Radio, the Hurstville Savoy and the Kogarah Victory being the others. It’s a big building, with a seating capacity of 1,100. In 1950 Hoyts acquired the theatre and renamed it the Hoyts.
