also, this theater was never a triplex, but a twin that used the third line on the marquee whenever they were playing two films on one screen.

I was suprised to hear that this theater closed and that Screen Arts gave up on it after only a few years.

According to a story in Newsday, the Flatbush Pavilion closed down on May 22nd, 2004. Officials of Screen Arts Corporation, which operated the theatre, declined to comment on its future. It first opened in 1912 as the Bunny Theatre.

was built by silent film funnyman John Bunny, who also built the now-closed Nova. Throughout its history, it was an indoor mini-golf course, a XXX house called the Plaza and then it was revived as a first-run house called the Plaza and then the Plaza twin before being sold to the owner of the Pavillion Theater. To my knowledge it is the oldest operating movie theater in NYC.
