Central Parkway Cinemas opened on December 26, 1980, with The Tim Drum, The Black Stallion, Airplane!, and Stardust Memories. As Mike mentioned prior, it was independent before being acquired by Cineplex Odeon in the 80s. It was later used as a school for projectionists and reopened years later by Dollar Cinemas. By the Mid 90s, Golden Theatres acquired it before selling it again to Encore Cinemas in 1999. By 2000, it became independent again when CineStarz acquired it in 2008.

It was renamed the Central Parkway Cinemas in March 2022 and reopened that same month. It used to screen independent films after its relaunch, but now it screens Bollywood films only.
