Very similar to the Terrace Theatre in Kingsport. I believe the Terrace was an Ultravision theatre, and had rocking chair seats.

I thought in 1978 Plitt bought all the ABC THEATRES,but BOb has,and i guess rightly so, 1980 for Plitt Purchase.

Sometime in the late seventies,77 or 78 our ABC Theatres went to Plitt,don’t know why it took so long at this location unless it was another chain when built.

The Mall Cinema was originally a single screen opened by ABC Southeastern Theatres and later split into twiws. From what I read Plitt didn’t come into the picture until 1980.

The theater was torn down in 1992 to expand the mall.
