The Center Drive-in theatre was south of Division St. behind McDonald's, where BJ's Wholesale Warehouse is today. When I started coming to Ansonia in 1974 it was closed, but the "humps," projection booth/snack bar, and speaker stands were visible for years. I don't remember the screen. In 1955 these two rivers flooded and there was at least 10' of raging water over this property. It stood in the "center" of the V where the Naugutuck and Housatonic Rivers meet. Over the years, evidence of the drive-in crumbled, and BJ's bought the land and built about 1999 (a guess.)
