Theatres 5 and 6 would be a good retro-fit for 70MM projection.

The architect of the Cinemark Melrose 10 was Kip E. Daniel. Here’s a pdf file about the construction of this theater. It mistakenly adds an “s” to the end of his name. Kip E. Daniel is a principal and a managing director of the Beck Group, a design-build firm headquartered in Dallas, which has built numerous multiplex cinemas for Cinemark and other exhibitors.

They have recently added Real-3D projection in this theater. Hopefully they will show “Monsters vs. Aliens” as its first feature in Real 3D.

Actual opening day was March 5th 1999. I remember distinctly heavy snow that night. Weather records confirm 5.3 inches of snow on March 5 1999.

This replaced a Builders Square which also replaced a former Kmart.
