Deja View was made possible through a partnership between the Downtown Albany Business Improvement District (BID), Albany Parking Authority (APA), Palace Theatre and funding in part through Capitalize Albany Corporation’s Amplify Albany grant program.
Movies in the series were chosen by community members, over 600 of whom completed an online survey. The schedule is as follows:
- August 18 | Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (PG)
- August 25 | The Princess Bride (PG)
- September 1 | Salt (PG13)
- September 8 | Up (PG)

Patrons are encouraged to bring chairs and blankets to view the movie, and while in Tricentennial Park they can enjoy items from the on-site bar and concession stand run by the Palace Theatre.
With an increase in residential and visitor populations in Downtown, the series was implemented as a way to highlight the adaptive nature of urban parks to go from lunchtime hotspot to hosting unique, pop-up evening events, and also serves to inform the public of free evening (after 5:00 PM) and weekend parking throughout Downtown on-street and in public parking facilities, and the ease with which people can park, including at the Tricentennial Park-adjacent Riverfront Garage.
