MovieTowne now set to open next year

The MovieTowne complex at Turkeyen, East Coast Demerara is now set to open next year, according to an advertisement in yesterday’s Sunday Stabroek.

In April, Chairman of the Trinidad-based company Derek Chin had said that work was to be completed by December this year. The construction has been significantly delayed from the inception.

The ad yesterday said that retail and office space in the Cineplex and mall complex is now available.

In April, the Guyana-born Chin had informed that they had started with a budget of US$30 million, but the final cost would surpass US$45 million.
