The Northfield Cinema was located in the Northfield Plaza Shopping Center at 10333 Northfield Road.
This was built as a 2-screen cinema, and during the 70s was listed in the paper as the Northfield Plaza I & II – it was not affiliated with any of the major chains, always appeared to be independent.
The Northfield Plaza cinema, I think, was originally affilated with a Pittsburgh-based chain called “Cinemette”, which I think was absorbed into what is now Carmike Cinemas. However, the Cinemette ownership only lasted a few years, and the Northfield Plaza eventually became independent. Also, the owner of the Northfield Plaza took over the Mercury Theatre from General Cinema briefly before that theatre closed. For years, the Northfield Plaza had shown sub-run films for discounted admission. The Northfield Plaza closed shortly after Cinemark opened its 16-plex in nearby Macedonia.
Didn’t the guy running the Mercury later take over the Southgate Cinema from GCC? I knew what that guys name was, but right now can’t think of it.
