A closer address is 26 Co Rd 1, South Point, OH.

The house that sits at the address is where the entrance road was once located. There is no trace of the drive-in remaining.

This was later known as the Starlite Auto Theatre, and closed on September 4, 1986 with “Born American”, “Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2”, and “Lethol”.

Judging by the construction, it probably opened either in the middle of 1952 or at the start of 1953.

A closer address is 26 Pvt Dr 700 Co Rd 1, South Point, OH.

Despite the lengthy address, it is on Co Rd 1.

A 1952 aerial shows the drive-in under construction. By 1954 it seems to have been completed. By 1983, the drive-in was still intact although I cannot say if it was open.

By 1996, the drive-in had been demolished with a housing edition put in its place. No trace of the drive-in remains.
