There was a drive-in located at about 3932 US 11E East, give or take a few lots. There doesn’t appear to be any trace of this theater. There was another drive-in at or around 2296 US 11E West. This area is all commercial sprawl now.

At the 11E East Hwy address was this place located in the 3630 block. The T shaped driveway on the North side of the Hwy was an old drive-in.
