The closure of the last movie theater in downtown Berkeley has been confirmed, leaving just one cinema left within city limits after the recent losses of the 10-screen Shattuck Cinemas and the 107-year-old California Theatre, which is reportedly slated to become a 15-story mixed-use apartment building. The shuttering of the 90-year-old Regal UA Berkeley on 2274 Shattuck Ave. is part of 39 planned theater closures nationwide that are expected to roll out starting Feb. 15 after Cineworld, the parent company of Regal Cinemas, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last September.
