It seems this theater in aerials appeared to have been operational as far back as 1971 so it was built before the Delco Plaza Twin then The Camelot 1 & 2 in 1974. The most recent theater activity before the this theaters supposed construction this theater would be Palace Theater before it burned down in 1969, I wonder if this cinema was built in response to that.
