The Dominion Cinema on Newbattle Terrace, Morningside was opened on 31st January 1938. It was designed in an Art Moderne style, by Edinburgh architect T. Bowhill Gibson. There is a tower located to the right of the building's facade, with windows occupying the central section over the entrance. Inside the auditorium there was seating for 1,375 in stalls and circle levels.
In 1972 the Cinema was divided into two screens reducing the capacity to 880. In 1980 a third screen seating 50 was added. Another screen seating 60 was added in 1998.
