yes, the bulk of the property is now the Langport subdivision. the basements were very hard to dig due the years of graveling and re-graveling the old drive in lot.

It was Dog-N-Suds root Beer drive in that later became Joseppi’s Italian restaurant. The actual entrance of the drive in is where the Golder Corral Restaurant is now and the Medical center was right next to it. The Medical Center is an old Kroger store and was there in the 70’s when the Dive-In was still operating. In later years they did away with the cabled speakers and you could pick up the sound on your AM radio at a very low power station. There were one or 2 spots at Kroger where you could park and watch and hear the movies for free.
