Page 8 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2020 Revere says goodbye to Hollywood Showcase Cinemas to become city’s second Amazon distribution site By Th e Advocate N ational Amusements, Inc. has entered into an agreement for the sale of its Showcase Cinemas site on Squire Road to Northbridge Partners, a Massachusetts-based investment firm. Northbridge Partners reportedly has plans to lease the site to Amazon, a wellknown, multinational e-commerce retailer. According to their attorney, A.B.C. CIGAR 170 REVERE ST., REVERE (781) 289-4959 Same Location * Same Service for over 48 Years... Thanks to our customers for their support ! Gerry D’Ambrosio, Northbridge Partners plans to build a stateof-the-art, last-mile delivery station at the Squire Road site that will eff ectively function as an extension of Amazon’s new facility housed at the former Necco factory in the City of Revere. The plan is for the existing movie theatre building to be razed and replaced with a new, multi-million dollar facility, which will result in a smaller building footprint than the current movie theatre footprint and a reduced traffi c fl ow. The city expects to see increased tax revenue from the project. D’Ambrosio estimates that, “the tax for the new building will likely be three times what it is now, and that City auto excise tax revenue will also jump as Amazon will register their vehicles there as well. This will only help keep the residential tax rate lower.” Additionally, the new distribution facility will likely bring hundreds of new jobs to the city.
