Lost Theatres

One for the more senior HG members; what year were the Apollo, Empire and Alhambra closed and pulled down? Both were well before my time - I know that the Lyric Theatre (where St Andrew House and Cineworld stands today) was in the late 50s, but haven't got any info on the others.

Apollo - im thinking 1989. (although it was derelict for a few years before)
Alhambra - early 60s?
Not sure about Empire.
