NEW CRESTVIEW CINEMA SITE MOVING DIRT

Guess what folks. This new movie cinema in North Crestview is huge. Excitement is in the air and the City Fathers are getting their wish. The City has always said recently, the town is moving North. With the only Library, new Crestview Chamber of Commerce, and Post Office across the street from the High School, and five new banks, it is quite obvious the City is getting what they wanted. It was only natural the new Cinema be placed in the middle of all of this.

You can’t smell the popcorn and tickets sure aren’t for sale yet, but Crestview continues to nudge closer to having a new 10-screen cinema.
Contractors have cleared a multi-acre site for the planned Twin Creeks Crossing shopping center, cinema and office park off of Richbourg Lane and Industrial Drive. Located behind the new Marquis Self Storage facility, developers also are planning an apartment complex for the site.
A new cinema for the area has long been rumored. Several false starts were thought to be the real thing.
This time however, things look serious, if the bustle of heavy construction equipment and the erection of temporary site offices is any indication.
Keith Park Developers is working on the first phase of the development, which would include the 10-screen, 40,000-square foot cinema as an anchor for a 30,000 square foot shopping center. The cinema would feature stadium-style seating, according to the developers’ agent, Jack Jernigan.
Speaking before the city council in February, Jernigan said the targeted opening for the cinema is set for April 1, 2010.
