The Hardie Drive-In was located on what is now W Ave O, at the intersection of Old Golf Course Road. The site appears to be a trailer home park now. The side roads of the trailer park have a distinctly “drive-in” appeal, named Belair, Monte Carlo, and Impala.

Here is an aerial photo from 1964 of the Hardie Drive-In:

West Avenue O will not map correctly. Use Old US Highway 190 & Old Golf Course Rd.

The mobile home park is still using the old concession building.
