Riverview Theater, Art deco movie theater in South Minneapolis, United States
Riverview Theater is an art deco movie house in South Minneapolis that blends modern digital projection with original 1950s architectural details. Its curved walls and metallic accents throughout the interior create a distinctive viewing environment.
Architects Liebenberg and Kaplan designed the theater in 1948 using their signature mid-century modern approach to the project. The building reflects the architectural style that defined Minneapolis cinema design during that era.
The theater serves as a gathering spot where locals watch both new releases and older films together, keeping its role as a neighborhood meeting place alive. Visitors can feel how the space brings the community together around cinema.
The theater accepts cash payments and has an ATM on-site for visitor convenience when paying for tickets. Finding and entering the venue is straightforward for first-time guests.
The theater sells freshly prepared popcorn with real butter that customers can buy even without watching a film at the venue. Many local residents stop by just to purchase this popular snack for home.
