The York opened as the China Cinema in 1945 and was located in the heart of Hamilton's Chinatown. In 1955, the theater, which was located at 164 York Street, was renamed the York cinema.

The 448-seat theater closed in 1985.

Here is some infomation about the old York theater.
At one time there was two York theaters in Hamilton. Back in the 1970's the York Cinema closed at its Downtown Hamilton location, but two week later the "York" name moved to the Hamilton Mountain where it re-opened its doors untill 1985. The theater on the Mountain is now called The Movie Palace.
