Four months after a 14-auditorium movie theater in Apple Valley closed its doors when AMC decided not to renew its lease, officials are already talking about what will take its place.

It's a process made much easier - and less expensive - because the building's owner decided to donate it to the town.

Shuttered, abandoned movie theaters are not an uncommon sight in the era of streaming video. Nassif said COVID didn't help either. But why simply give away an asset with an estimated value of $3 million? Nassif said it makes sense for the owner in at least two ways. "We've had a lot of interest from not just the people of Apple Valley, but the whole high desert, and even outside the area we've had a tremendous amount of folks looking to see what they can do with this type of facility," he said.
