The Cinema became a triplex in 1979, and closed on December 31, 1988.

Before it was called the Cinema Movie theater, it was called Temple Inn. It was next to a very fancy restaurant that I think was called Dick’s. What I remember best about the Cinema Theater was that it showed Double Feature B movies – never first run – and ticket prices were the lowest in Union City.

Is this really demolished? It seems on Bing Maps that there is a theatre at that location.

They just removed the old marquee in the last week.

Could be more, but the only two that I think were CINERAMA were the Clairidge in Montclair and the Bellevue in UPPER MONTCLAIR. On the other hand, not to make you feel bad, but at one time or another New York State had about 13 CINERAMA Theatres!

This could not have been a Cinerama theatre. What were the Jersey Cinerama houses anyways?

I’ve looked at my various CINERAMA Theatre lists and do not see this theatre listed.
