I uploaded its aerial and an aerial of its demolition.
It was a record… The riff raff started coming to this theatre, trashed it and the regular patrons were scared off. Can’t have anything nice.
This location had 24 screens, not 25.
“This is probably the record for the largest closed multiplex,”
No, the Loews' 20 North Versailles opened in 1999 and closed in 2001.
The correct zip for this address is 77042.
This is probably the record for the largest closed multiplex, I’ve heard of the Regal Hollywood 20 in Lutz, FL and another megaplex Loews had in North Versailles, PA. But those only lasted a few years, at least this made it 12. Still its a short life span and they had all the modern amenities including an expanded concession menu from what the images at Cinema Tour suggest.
A demolition permit for the Tinseltown Westchase 25 was issued by the City of Houston in January of 2008. The theatre has now been demolished.
This multiplex opened in December, 1995, and will close before the end of 2007 and be demolished to make way for an office complex. From debut to doom in a dozen years. I wonder if that’s a record?
