Boston is all set to welcome its first Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in the Seaport, opening its doors on November 17. This new addition to the city's entertainment landscape replaces the former ShowPlace ICON Theatre, which closed amid the pandemic. The cinema house, nestled amidst eateries like Grace by Nia and Flight Club, boasts a grand Iron Giant figure in its lobby, resonating with the story setting of "The Iron Giant" in nearby Maine.
Founded in Austin, Texas in 1997, the Alamo Drafthouse chain is known for its curated movie selections, created by movie aficionados for a likeminded audience. The new Seaport venue continues this tradition, with a dazzling array of vintage foreign spy movie posters gracing the lobby walls, reflecting the founder Tim League's penchant for movie posters.
