Nice little drive-in along the Ohio River on the Kentucky side. The Riverview Auto Theatre was opened on September 5, 1948 and was operated by R. Bressler. Used to frequent the place when I was just a kid back in the 1960’s and 1970’s.

Approx. address for this drive-in was 11 Mary Ingles Hwy, Dayton, KY 41074.
The address of this drive in was 7 Mary Ingles Hwy. I worked there as projectionists from 1973 to 1978. It was not automated It had carbon arc lamps and 2000 ft. magazines It had Brenkert BX80 projectors, RCA MI-9030 sound heads, and Ashcraft lamps. This drive holds many fond memories for me I have pictures and some home movies I took there. I worked at other drive ins and theatres in the Cincinnati area and filled in at many others. I could maybe write a book.
Originally It Was Called Riverview Auto When It First Opened.
According to the Encyclopedia of Northern Kentucky, the Riverview opened September 5, 1948.
