Sign on outside of building

A multiplex with five screens that opened in 1990, closed in 2004. As of the summer of 2012, the building still remains, complete with the Cinemas sign on the side of the building. The Hermiston Stadium 8 multiplex is right on the next block. I guess when it was called “Theater Lane”, they were right. It houses a Goodwill store in 2025.

The murals painted on the walls of the lobby are absolutely stunning!

The Hermiston Tri-Cinema serving the Tri-cities launched November 19, 1980 with two operating screens and 652 seats with “Blue Lagoon” and “Smokey and the Bandit 2.” In 1983, it expanded to the Hermiston Tri-Cinema 5. It appears to have completed a 25-year leasing agreement although may have dropped “Tri” in 2000.
