Ken Roe – Thanks for adding these cinemas. This Odeon looks like a great venue. The exterior Art Deco design is fine in its understatement. Churches are great tenants for old cinema treasures. Ironic that in the old days, movie theaters were a target for many Christian denominations!
Heres another view, showing how little the building has changed, taken around 1991 when I was a manager at the nearby UCI multiplex
