A rare note of something that did not happen.
Boxoffice, March 23, 1970: “Harmar Drive-In, all new and relocated about a mile from the original outdoor theatre at Harmarville, is expected to be ready for opening late in the season, all depending on progress in highway construction.”
Boxoffice, July 16, 1973: “George Rodnok said that the long-ago dismantled Harmar Drive-In at Harmarville will not be replaced. For several years the plan had been to relocate about a mile or so from the old site, which was a popular ozoner.”
The Harmar’s final night of operation was on November 4, 1968 with “The Odd Couple” and “5 Card Stud”

The listing above shows a rare occurence with TWO drive-ins in the Pittsburgh Metro Area (28 miles apart) having their grand openings on the same night: Harmar and Lakevue (later renamed Mt. Lebanon).

This was my original entry that I had placed several days ago. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be posted or not; I thought maybe it was too descriptive. My apologies for the second entry of the same place.
