This opened in February 1964 with a capacity of 799 seats, although I cannot find the grand opening advertisement at all. It has the same exact features as the Boardman Plaza Theater.
Broumas also operated the Newport Theatre for a time. The company declared bankruptcy in December, 1967. At the time they operated 17 theaters in six states.Although headquartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, I believe that Broumas had operated more theaters in the Youngstown area than anywhere else.
Joe back then Broumas also owned the State Theater downtown. See ad on photo page.
A “Looking Back” type of feature published in the Vindicator on December 15, 2003, (online here) said that in December, 1963, Broumas Theatres opened two new movie houses at Lincoln Knolls Plaza and Boardman Plaza, and had a third house under construction at Liberty Plaza.
