Construction of Movie Theater Underway in Jonesboro

purchase the 10.75-acre project in 2014

"Getting a project of this type off the ground takes time, lots of time. The approval process in the theater business must be long and vigorous," Joshua Brown, principal at Haag Brown, said in a news release. "With the lot sitting practically untouched for so long, a lot of people thought the project would never happen. Not only is it happening, it is going to be huge."

"In the last 5 years, we have completed over 20 projects along Highway 49 north between Hilltop and the Farville Curve," Brown said. "This project is exactly what we've been needing to attract and secure some restaurants and retailers that have been reluctant to commit to the market. We have several properties available surrounding this development and we expect more businesses to move to the area in the near future."
