Amityville Twin

This was opened as a Prudential (UA) house and was taken overby Almi in 1980, twinned and became a Almi-Century theatre. When RKO was added to the fold, this was closed in 1986. This was a modern 1960’s theatre and was hardly “crumbling”. It was stigmatized as a “black house” and the bookings catered to that clientele. They had lounge chairs in the balcony. It was well run by the managers who cared and the owners who didn’t. The building survives as an office complex with retail on the main level.
