The once New Crown & New Town Cinema in Ang Mo Kio now houses a furniture mall. The once Broadway Cinema used to screen Indian movies a few years ago, and now it is converted to a building with a few eateries, K-Box and more.<BR/><BR/>Well, I suppose people are quick to capitalise on these old cinemas buildings that once had a glorious past, but now seemingly less relevant in today's time.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-32646301742904720762007-12-29T14:36:00.000+08:002007-12-29T14:36:00.000+08:00No. It's not Savoy.Victor.

Then I think there was a spate of them being converted for use by arcade and billiard operators. You know, if these buildings could tell a story, it'll be really interesting.Ivan Chewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727226573817276108noreply@blogger.com
