Grand opening ad posted. It was the first for General Cinema in the state.
Ever noticed so many Boston-based chains operated most of the cinemas in Lexington, Louisville, and Cincinnati? USA Cinemas, National Amusements, Hallmark, General Cinema, etc.
Loew’s closed it in August 1990 and reopened as a dollar house on May 31st, 1991. Another ad posted.
Uploaded photos from the Lexington Herald-Ledger of the theatre and the pylon when it was the Turfland Cinema at the Mall.
Most of the mall was razed. A portion of it is now a Home Depot.
Does anyone know the number of seats before it was twinned? Or the dimensions of the screen?
