Bad news. Apparently this wonderful old buildings days are numbered. It looks like Sterling Realty is in talks with big box retailer Home Depot to build on this site. I’ve noticed moving vans backed up to the building on several occasion recently, perhaps emptying out the building in preparation for demolition. It is very sad indeed. I had truly hoped that someone would restore this great old theatre and put it back into operation. It would have been terrific. Another one bites the dust.
Those of you in this area with fond memories of the Lynn / Lynn Twin / Lynn Four theater should go take your final last looks and say your good-byes. I will try to get some good photos of the place to one day post here on this site.
I used to work at this theatre in the seventies. The building is still there but it is currently vacant. I understand that Sterling Realty owns the property. I wish Landmark would purchase the theatre and restore it to its glory. They could feature bargain second run movies on two of the screens and first run films on the other two. I have current photos of the building if anyone is interested. I would post them here on the site but they are not accepting new photos at the moment. If you would like to see them, feel free to e-mail me and I would be happy to send them to you.
I would love to see vintage photos of the Lynn Twin / Lynn Four if anyone has them.
Thanks

FYI, the Victory Drive-In is featured in an episode of the sixties TV series The F.B.I. It is episode 15 from the second season. The episode is titled “Raid”. The Victory Drive-In is featured in the Prologue at the very beginning of the episode. You can view it on AOL’s In2TV site. I think this link will take you there.
Should be fun for those of you with such fond memories of what appears to have been a very cool Drive-In. Enjoy! View link
The Puget Park is now open for the Summer 2007 season! See you all there!
