In the ‘70s, the Pike Theater was split into three screens - the main auditorium was twinned, with the balcony made into a third. Watching a movie up there was a miserable experience.
The Pike Triple was the only indoor theater in town until June 1998, when the Continental Cinema 5 opened on 231 north. The Pike closed up literally the night before. The Troy Police Department HQ now sits on this site.
Opened On September 5, 1949 With Robert Montgomery In “Once More, My Darling”.
This theater was operated by the Gaylord family in Troy as was the Starlite Drive In Theater there for two generations.
