Taking Spengler Street west from GW Way would take you up a hill for a birds eye view of the Skyline. When I visited in 1992, you could still see berms on the empty lot between the 7-11 and the apartments and broken pieces of the screen.
The Sky-Line opened its gates on March 20, 1953 with Tony Curtis in “Son Of Ali Baba” and Robert Ryan in “Horizons West” along with a cartoon, featuring an original 68x50ft screen. The projection booth was located 584ft away from the screen. It was first operated by Skyline Theaters of Newport and was first managed by Ray DiLorenzo.
Now Washington Square apartments. Please update.
Boxoffice, Feb. 26, 1955: “The Skyline Drive-In at Richland, a 750-car installation, has been acquired by Midstate Amusement Co., Walla Walla.”
