Preservation laws are such a joke. Adding a building to the National Register of Historic Places or giving the building landmark status does very little to protect the building. And why wasn’t the entire building put on the list in 84 along with the lobby and grand foyer?

This theater closed a few years ago. It was demolished to make way for a new, relocated Publix Supermarket. The original Publix was located in the center of the plaza that once housed the Continental Theatre.

Your welcome Chuck1231. The link to the second photo you posted is from my other Flickr account. They were all shot on the same day.

Are you positive that this drive-in closed in 1980? My family went here often and I remember my brother and I playing around, he was born in 1980. Palm Cinema opened in 1986 and I’m pretty sure six years did not pass between the drive-in closing and Palm Cinema opening. Floyd owned the land and drive-in and sold the land with the condition that the shopping center developers allow Floyd to build a new theater on the property (Palm Cinema 3).

Drew C commented about Lakeland Mall Twin on Apr 20, 2010 at 1:06 am

Movie534, this theater was designed the same way as the one you worked at. Blue on one side and the other red, with the concession stand in the middle. The mall was turned into the “First Baptist Church at the Mall”. The theater still exists but it is used only for church functions. The theater is located at the back entrance of the former mall.

This theater was originally called the Jerry Lewis Twin Cinema (1972-1974). The name of the theater was changed to Lakeland Mall Twin Cinema in 1975 and closed under the same banner in 1992. Locals sometimes called the theater “Lakeland Mall I & II” or “Lakeland Mall”. The names where also used in some advertising. As far as I know it was independently owned & operated.

Jerry Lewis Cinemas were part of a chain of franchised independent theater owners. The Chain was controlled by Network Cinema Corp. By 1980, the chain was completely defunct, with both Jerry Lewis and the National Cinema Corporation filing for bankruptcy.

The Cinemark was originally built as a free-standing theater. The Festival Bay Mall was built a few years later and the theater was attached to the mall. Here is a small photo of the theater before it was attached to the mall.

According to this sign (sorry for the context) I found on Ebay, the Broadway Theatre had existed in 1925.
