Merritt Island’s Causeway Drive-In was located on the Merritt Island Causeway on Florida’s Atlantic Coast. It was opened in 1951. By 1968 it was operated by Kent Theatres Inc. It was demolished in 1984 and the drive-in site is now the location of a shopping center.

A friend had posted something about drive-thru movie theaters on her Facebook page and I remembered this one from when I was a small boy. Right where I remembered it too, sure wish it was still there. That would be a fun thing to do!
Article that claims the Causeway Drive-In was next to an indoor one called Barn Theater.

A Merritt Island community Facebook page says that the Causeway Drive-In was opened in 1951. Both the drive-in and the adjacent Barn Theatre were bought by Walmart in 1984 and demolished for their new store.
MichaelKilgore added a nice shared marquee for both to the gallery.
