I remember the Lexington Flick being a triplex through sometime around the late ‘80s – I think through the time it was a Loews property – but have no knowledge of what became of the third auditorium; perhaps it became retail?
Sometimes theatres put more then one number on the marquee for when they run split screens.
The marquee in front suggests that it might have once been a 3-screen cinema. I don’t know where the third screen could have been, since the existing two are both quite small.
My uncle owned the Westborough Flick ½, also known as the Ruth Gordon Cinema, on Route 9 in Westborough, but it was not affiliated with the other Flicks.
The ‘Flick’ people also owned a theatre that was part of the Sherwood Plaza strip mall on Route 9 in Natick. That particular venue closed in the summer of ‘89 with 'Field of Dreams’ as one of its final attractions – I recall a special mentioning of the Natick Flick’s closing within its listing in its Boston Globe Movie Clock listing at the time – and has since been converted to retail.
