The Point is an entertainment complex in Central Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. When it opened in 1985, it included the UK's first multiplex cinema.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AMC CINEMAS® BRINGS THE MULTIPLEX TO THE UNITED KINGDOM )〕 The front part of the building has a distinctive mirrored crystal ziggurat shape, framed by external steel beams at each corner, joined at the apex. Originally it had red neon lights connecting the apexes at each side, so that it looked like a pyramid at night. In May 2012, the building's owners Hammerson announced proposals to demolish the building and replace it with a retail-based development.〔(''MK News'', Plans to demolish The Point go on display. 25 May 2012 )〕 On 6 March 2014 it was announced that Milton Keynes Council had voted to approve the application. 〔(Milton Keynes The Point demolition and development approved ) - BBC Beds, Herts and Bucks, 6 March 2014〕 On February 26, 2015, the Odeon cinema to the rear of the building closed, in preparation for the demolition. Historic England commented that it was "in essence, a large industrial shed unit" and refused to recommend the building for listed status. 〔(Why is the UK still knocking down historic cinemas?. 21 August 2015 )〕 ==Facilities== As of 2012, The Point houses: *Odeon Cinema (Closed 26 February 2015) *Gala Bingo (located underneath) *Joint Civil Aid Corps - adult/youth charity based on emergency services support have their HQ on the ground floor (Since September 2015). *The Point Kiosk 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Point, Milton Keynes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
