I’ll ask CinemaTreasures to fix the Description header appropriately.

You are only talking about a distance here of about 100 yards…unless you really looked at the maps, you wouldn’t know the difference. If you would ask someone to circle an area of a map that would be considered Arlington, they include this shopping center. If I didn’t live here, I certainly wouldn’t have noticed the difference. As I said above, the city boundaries here get very, very confusing.

Thanks for the correct, MarkL. So Loew’s named this theatre after a place it was next to rather than a place where was actually located?

In this case, the theatre is in Columbus, BUT the 43220 zip code also includes the north part of the city of Upper Arlington, where I live. It also includes some unincorporated/township areas.

Things can get very confusing in the northwest part of Columbus. You might live in Columbus proper, go to school in the Worthington School district, and have a mailing address of Dublin. It really takes careful study of the local maps to really figure things out.

The zip code for the former Loew’s Arlington was 43220 and the postal service lists the address as Columbus, Oh. So the header needsd to be changed to Columbus and the Zip Code added.

Theatre was to be twinned shortly after Easter, 1974. Each room was to seat 550. Cost of twinning was to be $70,000, and construction was to take approximately 30 days.

Loew’s Arlington was not located in Upper Arlington. It was located in the City of Columbus. Annexation maps from uarchives.org show the Arlington city limits ending on the south side of Henderson Road. The north side of Henderson, including the shopping center with the theatre, is actually in Columbus. These boundaries still exist today.

Here’s a link to Loew’s 1966 annual report, which contained a picture of the theatre exterior and the text that I quoted above. Loew’s Arlington and Loew’s Morse Road are also mentioned in the company’s 1967 annual report.
