former Majestic Cinema, Belfast

former Majestic Cinema, BelfastThe Majestic Cinema in Belfast opened in May 1936 and closed in October 1975. It is currently an Ideas furniture store.

It was designed by Belfast architect J McBride Neill.

The basic shape of the building remains but the original tiles have been removed or covered. Certainly the flagpole which was at the centre of the facade has been removed.

There is a great picture of the cinema in November 1954 on Flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/oldcinemaphotos/2298609350/).
