Change

A customer stands before the box office reading start times for the movie theaters in downtown Sparks. The theaters are scheduled to close Sept. 29. Built by Syufy Enterprises in 1997-98 as a centerpiece of downtown revitalization, the theatre complex had more recently been operated by Cinemark, which is bowing out. The owner is seeking a new operator. Meanwhile, the street in front of the facility, C Street, is also closed, more or less permanently, with the construction of an apartment development. It is one of only three streets that allow traffic through the downtown area on east-west routes.
