The Tower Drive-In was announced in 1949 by Francis Hardwick. It’s grand opening was on April 9, 1950 with Loretta Young in “The Farmer’s Daughter.” It closed likely at the end of a 25-year lease playing Hispanic films. The final show appears to be September 9, 1984 with a double feature of Alicia Juarez in “La Cosecha de Mujeres” and David Zalzar in “Cruz de Olvido”.
