The new $23 million complex, whose six screens are powered exclusively by Christie CP2000-ZX DLP Cinema projectors, is helping to revive the city’s core.  Built within a restored century-old historic building, The Beacon Cinema brought the excitement of the movies back to the downtown area after a 15-year absence.
