Four years after first trying to enter the New York City market, the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, the Austin, Tex.-based chain known for dine-in theaters with creative programming and a strict policy of no talking or texting, will open its first multiplex in the city this month.

The company, which also has a film distribution arm, announced on Tuesday that a seven-theater complex in Downtown Brooklyn would start showing films on Oct. 28.

Alamo has been steadily expanding nationwide since opening its first theater in 1997, and while it has operated in Yonkers for three years, its efforts in New York City faced setbacks. In 2012, it announced plans to convert a long-dormant theater on the Upper West Side. But those plans were scrapped in 2013.

The Brooklyn theater is part of City Point, a new residential-retail complex. Alamo was going to open the theater in August — ads were even posted in subway stations to that effect — but construction delays occurred.
