Three of eight murals were removed and restored by the university, and are now incorporated into its new building.Concordia purchased the complex in 1998, deciding that it was too badly deteriorated to save. It was demolished in 2001.The building had included residential and commercial space, in addition to the cinema. It was built with a capacity of 1,200 theatre goers for the United Amusement Corporation.
