Kenmore commented about Oshkosh Drive-In on Feb 5, 2024 at 4:24 am

A closer address is 17570 US-26, Oshkosh, NE.

This puts it quite close to the property. Which has been drastically changed since the drive-in close.

A closer address is 3825 Hwy Mm, Hannibal, MO.

This places it right on the Lorax Trucking Services which currently occupies the property.

Apart from the entrance road and general shape, there is nothing left of the drive-in.

Looks like the concession stand/projector booth survived at least until 1970. By 1975, it was gone along with all remaining traces of the drive-in.

Today, the property is home to Faithful Friends Animal Sanctuary, which consists of a relatively small building near where the screen once stood.

The rest of the property is overgrown with trees with only the entrance road, what may be the foundation of the ticket booth, and the general outline remaining.

Kenmore commented about Madison Drive-In on Jan 26, 2024 at 6:00 pm

A closer address is 106 NE Rutherford Trailer Park Way, Madison, FL.

I understand the address is not US-90, but it does put it smack on the drive-in itself. That’s because the entrance to the property has changed to the side street.

Today, you can still see the outline and some of the ramps along with the foundation of the ticket booth. The projection booth/concession stand still exists as well.

And as the address indicates, the property is a trailer park.

The ticket booth was torn down with the drive-in. The structure which stand near, but not exactly where the ticket booth once stood is probably the guard house for the housing community.

Kenmore commented about Cardinal Drive-In on Jan 23, 2024 at 1:00 pm

A closer address is 2692 US-45, Mayfield, KY 42066.

This puts it right on the entrance/exit roads.

Although the property hasn’t been developed, the screen and projection booth/concession stand are gone or have turned to rubble. The ticket booth is still present, but in terrible shape.

The outline, ramps, and entrance/exit roads are still present, but the entire property is overgrown.

The entrance booth was removed by September 2021. The marquee is still present, although not in the best shape. The concession stand/projection booth is still intact. It is the building with the blue roof in the overhead.

An RV park has been established on the northern part of the drive-in. However, the rest of the drive-in remains intact, although overgrown with trees.

A closer address is 3313 TX-44, Robstown, TX.

Google Maps has updated their addresses, so this puts it on the exact location of the drive-in.

This property is now owned by Churchwell Environmental. With no trace of the old drive-in remaining.

A better address is 1310 Ruben Chavez Rd, Robstown, TX.

This puts it right next to the entrance road, which is the only remnant of the drive-in remaining.

Today, the property is divided into two main sections consisting of trailer homes.

Kenmore commented about San Pedro Drive-In on Jan 21, 2024 at 2:54 pm

In 2011, the property was the home of SOLT Holy Family Formation Center with several buildings on the property.

They were all torn down and removed by 2016. The only thing left apart from the foundations is remnants of the entrance road. The same one created by the drive-in.

Kenmore commented about Sundown Drive-In on Jan 20, 2024 at 2:20 pm

A closer address is 871 State Hwy 70, Rotan, TX.

The drive-in was located immediately to the south of this address. The entrance road no longer exists, so Google Maps does not have an exact match on HWY 70 at this time.

The drive-in was located southeast of the town along State HWY 70. it was on the east side of the highway and appears intact in a 1966 aerial.

By 1984, it had long been demolished. Today, it is an open field that is private property. There is no trace of the drive-in remaining.

Kenmore commented about Harvest Moon Drive-In on Jan 14, 2024 at 6:45 pm

The marquee was removed sometime between August 2018 and July 2022.

An October 2023 Google Street View shows the ticket booth still intact, but Mother Nature is taking over and the drive behind the ticket booth looks to be overgrown.

If this is going to be reopened, they will need a new marquee.

Kenmore commented about South Ottumwa Drive-In on Jan 14, 2024 at 6:38 pm

the old entrance road is still there, being used by the trucking company which sits just north of the property.

The projection booth/concession stand is still intact. Although in the Google Street View you can’t see it because of the cornfield.

What’s more interesting is that one of the towers used to support the screen appears to still be standing.

Kenmore commented about Killeen Drive-In on Jan 13, 2024 at 3:20 pm

According to Google Street View, the sign has been there since at least May of 2008. They must really plan ahead.

Kenmore commented about Hi-Way Drive-In on Jan 10, 2024 at 4:01 pm

There are some remnants of the drive-in remaining, mostly on the southern side of the property.

The main entrance road remains and has been resurfaced. Much of the exit road remains, although it is not in use. You can also see parch marks of the outline and some of the ramps.

A closer address is 7180 US-165, Columbia, LA.

This puts it right next to the entrance road, which is now Chase Street.

The drive-in was demolished and completely gone by 1983. Today, the east half of the property is a Doller General. The west half an open field with no trace of the drive-in remaining.

You can still see some hints of the ramps.

Kenmore commented about Corral Drive-In on Jan 4, 2024 at 9:10 pm

A closer address is 3073 Willis Ave, Perry, IA.

This lines up better with the entrance road to the drive-in, which does remain in outline form today.

A closer address is 1402 Commerce Dr, Greenville, TX.

Google Maps has updated their addresses and this puts it right on the property.

The property is still undeveloped. You can still see the ramps, outline, and a series of large stones which mark where the projection booth/concession stand once stood.

A closer address is 5174 FM2874, Commerce, TX.

Google Maps has updated their addresses. This puts it right on the property about where the entrance road used to be.

You can still see the outline, ramps, and foundation of the projection booth/concession stand. What’s left of the screen is a crumpled mess underneath the trees as of June 2022.

Kenmore commented about Hi-Vue Drive-In on Jan 1, 2024 at 7:40 pm

The property is now totally overgrown. The entrance is still there, although it is covered in grass. Apart from the outline, you would never know a drive-in was on the property, at least from Google Maps.

Kenmore commented about Midway Drive-In on Dec 26, 2023 at 12:47 pm

The projection booth/concession stand made it to at least 1995. Today, you can still see its foundation sitting between the two buildings.
