The screen tower was demolished in 2020 according to searches from Google Earth and Maps.

The screen tower is gone. I’m thinking the concession stand will be next.

I Found A Drive-In Snipe From The Late 1960’s “Coming Soon” Snipe That Says “NORTHSIDE (TOS) DRIVE-IN.” I Do Not Know Where The TOS One Is? Either This Or One Other Northside Drive-Ins.

So many amazing memories from this place as a lad, this was the real happiest place on Earth. Hope it comes back some day, this is just what the area is missing anymore.

I just uploaded new pictures and an overview for the Fort Myers/ Northside Drive-In. I do believe that Fort Myers and City Drive-Ins where operated by the same people for a while before the City Drive-In closed in 1970. I have a picture of a movie bill with both theatres on it.

Above address does not map correctly. Use North Fort Myers.
