The Petite 3 opened in the early to mid 1970’s, as that stretch of Battlefield road/street didn’t exist in 1964. It has been torn down, and the site is now a Pep Boys auto parts store.

The Baldwin Theater burned in the mid 1920’s, and was located across St. Louis Street from the Gilloiz Theater which is now being restored.

Century 21 Theater wasn’t a twin screen, but a large single screen. It
was part of Battlefield Mall, not across from the Mall. It opened in
1970, the first movie shown there was either Patton or MAS*H (can’t
remember which). The only other theater in Battlefield Mall was a 6 screen
theater located on the other end of the Mall, also closed. The address
is south Glenstone, not south Gladstone.
