A closer address is 3966 Co Rd 61, Barnum, MN 55707. The drive-in appeared to be intact in a 1991 aerial photo, but it has been totally demolished and there is no trace of it left. http://tinyurl.com/ppourth

Kenmore commented about Airway Drive-In on Aug 27, 2015 at 7:50 am

I found a drive-in on HWY 136 about ½ mile east of Salem Road on the south side. It appears to fit the description of this drive-in.

Today, it is private property and other than the outline there is no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/q8quymx

Wish I could. The link I provided is from Google Maps. You can see the shadow cast by the screen on the bottom so at least within the past year or so the screen is still standing.

A closer address is 4479 U.S. 59, Lufkin, TX. This will accurately mark the drive-in on Google Maps. http://tinyurl.com/p5n3rhd

A closer address at least on Google is 400 Malones Rd, Ashland, PA. You can still see the outline and the foundation of the projection booth/concession stand.

Approximate address is 250 Hodge Podge Rd NE which did not exist at the time of the drive-in.

The drive-in was replaced by a housing edition, there is no trace left. http://tinyurl.com/qbd7rwt

Kenmore commented about Crest Drive-In on Aug 20, 2015 at 6:51 pm

There does not appear to be any evidence of a drive-in located at HWY 77 and W. Hickory Road at least in the topo maps & aerial photos I’ve seen.

The only drive-in I’ve found in the town of Beatrice was on the east side at 1 N 26th. You can see it in the topo maps dating back to 1959 and an aerial photo from 1993 clearly shows its remains.

Is this the Crest Drive-In?

Today, there is no trace of the drive-in left and N 26th road runs into the middle of the property. http://tinyurl.com/pquzcoa

Kenmore commented about West-Vue Drive-In on Aug 19, 2015 at 5:05 pm

Well, not to get picky but the property itself is mostly empty with just a couple of self-storage buildings on the west side.

In fact, you can still see the faint outline of the ramps. http://tinyurl.com/qzn3j6z

Kenmore commented about Carroll Drive-In on Aug 13, 2015 at 12:32 pm

Well, I don’t know about getting “mixed up”.

Based on the comments by dallasmovietheaters and the 1950 aerial photo of the town, it’s clear that a drive-in was located at 18657 U.S. 71 at that time. That drive-in disappears in later aerial photos and a business is in its place.

The second drive-in shows up east of town afterwards at roughly 2500 US 30.

So, perhaps for true clarity sake I suppose there could be two separate entries. However, if the first one only existed for a few years and was essentially relocated, I would not object to just keeping this to one page.

The original drive-in was located at 18657 U.S. 71. Currently, a business is on the property with no traces of the old drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/py7lvdf

Based on information presented in the poster, the drive-in appears to be located to the west of 43546 New York 12, Alexandria Bay, NY.

You can still see the faint outline of the drive-in and the ramps, but nothing else remains. http://tinyurl.com/p3bnk3s

Kenmore commented about Capri Drive-In on Aug 8, 2015 at 5:40 pm

After searching the topo maps and aerial photos of the location in question, there is ample evidence that the address 291 N. Old St. Louis Road is the correct one at least according to Google Maps.

There is no evidence that another drive-in existed at or around 257 S. Old St. Louis Road. So, for the sake of accuracy in terms of location on Google Maps, the 291 address is better. However, if the address was what the original drive-in used in its advertising, then going with the other makes some sense.

Kenmore commented about Star Drive-In on Jul 29, 2015 at 4:09 pm

Approximate address is 4228 Old Highway 77, Brownsville, TX. The drive-in was located on the west side of the old highway with the screen facing NE and sitting next to the road and the waterway.

Today, there is a housing edition and apartments on the property with no trace left of the drive-in.

Kenmore commented about Rutland Twin Drive-In on Jun 5, 2015 at 8:40 pm

First, the address 129 VT-4A, Castleton, VT will more accurately map the location of the drive-in. You can still barely make out some of the ramps. https://goo.gl/maps/m3H9e

Second, there’s something not right or complete about the information to when the theater operated. According to a 2003 aerial overhead photograph, the drive-in already gone by that point in time having last been present in a 1994 aerial photo.

Based on that, either the drive-in was moved to another location or it did not last into the 21st century.
