All I remember of the place is that it opened in 1971 as the Jerry Lewis Cinemas. That’s right…funnyman Jerry Lewis had a chain of movie theaters in the early 1970’s. I remember seeing a photo in the lobby of Jerry Lewis at the grand opening. It was a typical mini-cinema of the day, a trend that had recently began in the early 1970’s of building shoe-box size movie theaters, many which still exist. The building is now a “beauty” college.
