Nearby Theaters
Located in the outer north Baltimore suburb of Lutherville. The Cine I - Cinema II was opened by Schwaber Enterprises on August 19, 1964 with George Peppard & Alan Ladd in “The Carpetbaggers” and Saro Urzi in “Seduced and Abandoned”. It was the first twin theatre to be built in Maryland. Cinema I had 500 seats and Cinema II had 800 seats.
It was renamed Yorkridge 2 in 1979 and in 1982 it was leased by JF Theatres who converted it into a four screen theatre in the summer of 1983. In 1988 JF Theatres were taken over by Loews Cineplex and they closed the Loews Yorkridge Four on January 9, 2000. It was demolished in mid-2004.

It’s last day was on January 9, 2000. The last movies they played were The World Is Not Enough, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, Bicentennial Man and Stuart Little.
Actually, the theater was taken over by Loews in 1988 after JF Theatres merged into Loews. Then it became a Sony theater in 1994 before reverting back to Loews in 1996. The Yorkridge last operated as a Loews Cineplex theater.
NOTE: The Loews Cineplex name wasn’t introduced until the $1 billion merger between both Cineplex Odeon and Loews in September 1997.
Once operated by JF Theatres, then Loews, then Sony, then back to Loews, and finally Loews Cineplex.
