Looked like it was something like a J-M theatre by logo, wonder if Gene Boggs is the Shopping center.
yes Mike they were part of John Miller Cinemas. No the Shopping Center was Twin Cities
Who would I talk to about reopening it
What I’ve done in situations like this was to contact a local real estate agent through the agency’s website. They generally are aware of any vacant and available properties.
I was wondering is it possible to look up old movie archives from this theater?
