There was a drive-in located at the I-184 interchange with N Curtis Rd. It is visible in 1951 aerial imagery. By 1971, the interchange has taken over the property. Not sure if this was the Boise Drive-In, or another drive-in. Maybe someone here can confirm.

Another address that works (at least for Google) is 1115 North Curtis Road. The highway sits where the drive-in used to be. http://tinyurl.com/glsofky

This is the correct address for this theatre.
This points directly to the freeway off ramp which used to be the drive-in entrance.
Please update.
