Assuming the Ariel Photograph is accurate, the York Drive-In was located at about 2403 N. Lincoln. https://goo.gl/maps/ZjLYK

There is no trace of the drive-in left.

Don’t know why it wouldn’t be accurate. Thanks for the address update.

I’ve learned over the years that you never really know :)

However, I see no reason why it can’t be. But then again I once lived in a pretty small town that had two drive-ins running at the same time and not one of my friends even remembers that second one, so to them it never existed in the first place.

Looks like the Pines opened in 1949. From the June 3, 1950 issue of BoxOffice:

YORK, NEB. – The Pines Drive-In has been reopened by Manager Carl Rose and his assistant Keith Hines, former assistant manager at the Sun Theatre. The 400-car ozoner was built and opened last summer by Dean Sack, who later leased it to the Central States Theatre Corp.
