Located on Route 20 in Auburn. Built on a hill with the back of the screen facing the road. Like many drive-ins at the time, the back of the screen was covered in aluminum with the theater’s name painted in large letters. It was closed in the early-1980’s.

The above address will map accurately to the location of the drive-in, which is currently occupied by a Home Depot.
Here is a 1971 aerial photo of the drive-in, courtesy of HistoricAerials.com.
Yeah, I already have posted that aerial on http://www.drive-ins.com/ a few months back with a lot more.
It looks like this closed in the early-1980s, as a 1985 aerial view shows the theater’s screen being removed.
