The Odeon, Blossom Street, York (EDM593)

The Odeon, Blossom Street, York

EDM number 593 in 2003-04, proposed by Hugh Bayley on 10/02/2004.

That this House notes with great concern the threatened closure of the Odean Cinema in York, a listed 1930s cinema famed for its perfectly preserved art deco architecture; notes that the closure of such a classic cinema would be a serious loss to the city's residents and visitors and to York's culture, economy and tourism industry; recognises that this picture house has a special place in cinema history and holds many precious memories for the people of York who would be devastated to see it close; notes that hundreds of York residents have signed a petition to save the cinema; and calls for Odean Cinemas to restore York's last traditional city centre picture house to its former glory and save it from closure.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
