The Scottsdale Discount Cinema stopped appearing in United Artists listings in the Arizona Republic after December 25, 1997. The Cinemafare section of the newspaper which listed movie times separate of the directory listings showed this theatre as closed.

An article in the November 7, 1998 Arizona Republic reported (with photo) that this theatre was being transformed into a contemporary art extension of the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, near Old Town Scottsdale.

Judging by images from Google street view, this building still stands as part of the Contemporary Art Museum at the northeast corner of E 2nd Street and N Wells Fargo Ave.
