Deseret News, 20 September 2007
Article Summary:
Woodbury Corporation will build a high-tech 16-screen theater complex as part of the Village at University Mall, an open-air addition east of Mervyns and The Sports Authority. The 150,000-square-foot project will open by June 2008 and will include twenty-five shops, water features, shop-front parking, and landscaping. Cinemark Theaters is in negotiations with University Mall, but mall officials say nothing is official at this point.
Rob Kallas, manager of University Mall, said that a new theater is needed to keep up with growing and changing demand.
Construction on an expansion of University Mall can begin after the city approve the plans.
Brady Whittingham and Tyler Measom took over the lease of the current dollar theater from an out-of-state owner after it expired in August 2007. It is a short term lease, but the new owners plan to continue operation of the dollar theater until the mall asks them to leave.
