The Skyvue Drive-In was opened in 1949 with a 400-car capacity. It was operated by Robert Lowry. In the 1960’s the car capacity was almost doubled. It was closed in the early-1980’s. Now Southwest Square, most of which is the Jonesboro School District Administration. No trace left.

Although I cannot find its opening date, the Skyvue opened in 1949 by Robert Lowery. It originally housed 350 cars but appears that it may’ve nearly doubled the capacity sometime in the 1960s. It appears that it closed in the early-1980s, as a 1985 aerial view shows the screen but the traces were completely cleared off.
