Opened by Cooper Theatres in 1974. This was the site of Cooper’s first 4-plex. They built this theatre rather than renew their least on the Stuart Theatre. Their offices were located above the theatre in the office section of the building. When it first opened it was simply called the Plaza Theatres. Later operated by Douglas Theatres. No time line for the closing.

I believe the Plaza 4 opened in 1972, because it was already open when I moved to Lincoln in August, 1973. Downtown Lincoln at that time had the Plaza 4, Douglas 3, Cinema 2, Stuart, State, Hollywood & Vine 2 (where I worked), and the Embassy (porn house). The only other indoor houses were the Cooper/Lincoln on East O Street, and the Joyo in Havelock (far northeast Lincoln). There were two drive-ins, single-screeners on either end of O Street. Three theatre circuits were headquartered in Lincoln at the time: Cooper Foundation, Douglas Theatres, and Dubinsky Theatres.
