The last movie theatre in Wilmington, The Rialto, closed in 1982 and was later demolished. Twenty years later, movies return to Wilmington with the opening of Theatre N at Nemours. Located in The Nemours Building at CityCenter@Wilmington — 1007 Orange Street — the theater underwent renovations that include new seats, painting, carpeting, movie screen and a concession area. It is located on the first floor of a 14-story building in Downtown Wilmington formerly owned by the DuPont Company. Today, the newly renovated property is owned by the Buccini/Pollin Group.
