If you plug that address into Google Maps, it clearly shows the theater. Very simple, but still a cool old intact theater, marquee and all.
I think I’ve got this figured out. The street view of this theater shows the Granite Theater, which is out on S. Main St., which is also Highway 321. The Main Theater is at 69 N. Main with the stagehouse still visible. The street view for this stretch of N. Main doesn’t pass the storefronts or I could confirm it.
Stopped by the Princess Theater today while in Flemingsburg with my son. This theater is not long for this world at all. Basically just a shell at this point, with the ticket booth removed and only the front doors giving an indication of what the building was once used for. A peek through the doors is telling, as is the condemnation noticed pasted to the front door. This theater is doomed.
And as Bob Jensen mentioned, the address is 217 North Main Cross Street. It’s right next to the IOOF Lodge. For now.
I think it’s kind of cool. Definitely a “must-see” stop on my upcoming “wild weekend in WV”. (When my wife goes to Spain on business. Does anyone party like me?)

The street view is wrong. It’s actually at 35.269099, -81.319249.
From the Save The Ro-Na Facebook page: “The Ro-Na Theater in Ironton, Ohio has been around since 1957. It’s located at 314 South 3rd Street.”
This is now an empty lot. I went to take pictures today and found that it had been demolished.
BTW, I found the location using http://www.historicaerials.com/ Great resource for finding old drive-ins.
Yes, Bob, it was located on the NE corner. I went looking, but there’s nothing left to take a picture of.
Address should be 644 W. Dickson. This is located just down and across the street from the U Ark Theater, which is 647 W. Dickson.
This should be changed to closed at the very least. All that remains of the Corbin Drive-in is the sign.
The address on this one should actually be 1136 South Ft. Thomas Avenue.

Pretty impressive pic of the Queen Anne, closed, but with the sign still up.
