The Heights Theatre opened in 1946. I could not find when it closed but it is now Feinsteins Ladies Store. The building hasn’t changed at all with the store using the former theatre entrance and adding display windows to the side of the auditorium.

The lobby of this theatre became a bank and the auditorium was sub-divided into various retail shops; they kept the Heights vertical sign and it became the Heights Shopping Center. In it’s later years, it became a 70MM house; saw Ghostbusters and missed seeing Silverado before it closed in ‘85.
Boxoffice of October 6, 1945, said that that Robb & Rowley’s Heights Theatre was under construction in Little Rock. It was one of four R&R projects then underway, and several more were in the planning stage.
I saw “Brainstorm” in 70MM at the Heights. They had a huge screen and I remember the sound being very loud, especially during the scenes of the “brain recordings.”
