Regal Battery Park

One-time United Artists 16-screen, all-stadium seating megaplex which opened its doors by Regal on July 14, 2000, but, because of its location far, far, downtown, has never truly captured the fancy of the Manhattan moviegoing public. It was taken over by United Artists in 2001.

Closing after suffering extensive architectural damage on September 11, 2001, the Battery Park City Stadium resumed its celluloid life in May of 2002, serving (and continuing to serve) as one of many hosts to the enormously popular Tribeca Film Festival. On August 8 2003, United Artists closed screens 1-5 and they were handed back to the landlord and they became a DSW Shoe Warehouse.

Please update the description, it open as Regal Cinemas in 2000. It was the 3rd theatre to enter the New York Market. A couple a years later, prior to them merging with UA, UA took control sometime in 2001.

20 years ago today this cinema was badly damaged during the 9/11 attacks. It took time for the cinema to reopen and soon became the most famous 9/11 cinema ever.

It’s fascinating seeing the early comments on this theater about how it was for sure going to be closed by the end of the 2000s and now it’s entering its 26th year of operation.

BenPaz- Truly fascinating since many of the new builds don’t make it past twenty years.

To be honest, though, they did lose a bunch of screens so it’s not exactly the same house that opened.

Besides downsizing, they (and the mall) also received massive federal funds after 9/11 to help bring business traffic back to Ground Zero. This location may have survived because of that tragic event.
