Newman-Bower and Associates designed the first plans for the Parkway Four Cinema for Eastern Federal Corporation Circuit in late 1978. Kent Theatre Circuit took on the project months later changing it to a five-plex with new plans opening with 1,150 seats. Lewis C. Medlin’s architectural sketch is in photos.
