50sSNIPES commented about Lane Theatre on Oct 25, 2025 at 6:19 am

The Lane closed as a first-run house on October 13, 1988 with Disney’s “Bambi”, “A Fish Called Wanda” and “Heartbreak Hotel” as a triple feature. It did briefly reopen as an independent theater operated by Landmark after being abandoned for some time but that was short-lived, with its closing date and attractions on the comment above. It also planned to reopen at the time afterward but this never happened.

It didn’t reopen in 2023. A 2025 maps view shows the marquee was restored and operating, but appears that the theater itself is closed. There’s also photos of the restoration on its website.

During its days as the Regency 3, it screened first-run films for most of its time, but during its final year in 1989, it mixed their policy with a mix of first-run and independent.
