The theater closed in the 1980s probably. After closure, the theater was left abandoned for many many years until being completely faded sometime after 2007.

50sSNIPES commented about Kingston Cinema Triplex on Sep 18, 2022 at 9:13 am

The triplex was located on 1122 Ulster Avenue in Kingston according to the original guy who took the photo. A Home Depot location now sits in the former triplex’s site. The triplex was demolished in the late 1990s, and the Home Depot was built afterward.

Closed in the mid-1960s, and was demolished in 1967 due to extension of Interstate 57.

The Sullivan Drive-in closed in the latter half of the 1980s. It was demolished sometime in the earlier half of the 1990s. And as of 2022, traces were still seen clearly.

The theater appears that it was closed in the mid-1970s and later demolished sometime in the late 1970s.

50sSNIPES commented about Hi-Way 82 Drive-In on Sep 18, 2022 at 5:15 am

The Hi-Way 82 appears that it was opened in the early 1960s. I am not sure if it closed after just half-a-decade, it might be later than that.

The entrance was located on 458 GA-35 in Tifton. It appears that the theater was demolished in the early 1970s. Now Cracker Barrel sits in the site.

Unclear, but could be. The tower sits right next to the former concession building. A handful of parking traces were still seen today.

Yeah you might be right Michael. The screen was gone after the early 1980s arrived.

Opened in the mid-1960s and closed in the mid-1980s. The theater’s entrance was located on 7380 Korean War Veterans Memorial Highway in Minocqua.

The Dundale Opened In 1961. Construction Probably Began Earlier That Year.

It was demolished later on during the decade, possibly during WWII.

50sSNIPES commented about Mayfair Theatre on Sep 16, 2022 at 11:17 am

Right when it twinned in 1979, it was the second theater in Kingston to have more than one screen, with the first being the Kingston Triplex Cinema (first known as the ATMC Cinema, which will have its own Cinema Treasures page soon) which operated from June 1978 until the second quarter of the 1990s.

The Mayfair Twin was last operated by Cinema Centers and was closed for the final time in the middle of January 1987. The closure of the Mayfair left the Hoyts operated Kingston Triplex and the Hoyts operated Hudson Mall 6 in competition.

Sad to say is that the Mayfair Theater was demolished in 1994, and as of now a Volkswagen dealership (Romeo Volkswagen of Kingston) now sits in the site.

I believe that this theater went back to Cannon in 1992-ish. Advertisements from 1993 says that the Putney was operated by Cannon.

Despite closing for a short time in 2010, it reopened later that same year by Picture Show Entertainments (who still runs the theater today).

50sSNIPES commented about Picture Show at Frontier Village on Sep 11, 2022 at 6:45 am

This page needs to get updated immediately. It did close for purposes for a short period of time in 2010 but it reopened later on as the “Picture Show At Frontier Village”, and is still opened today, running first-runs.

A correction on the address is that this is located on 1771 Arizona 69, not 1771 East Highway 69.

Closing sometime in the late 1980s, a 1992 aerial shows that at least a little more than a half of the theater’s traces were easily visible.
