there is a wal-mart now where the drive in was. also some small shops and a bank
Approx. address for this drive-in was 15 Tibbetts Drive.
I can’t vouch for the accuracy of the site but wikimapia indicates that the drive-in at Tibbets Drive was the Bowdoin Drive-in, which makes sense since it’s closer to Bowdoin College than the Brunswick drive-in, which was west of Brunswick. http://wikimapia.org/10512965/former-Bowdoin-drive-in-cinema
According to the site the Brunswick Drive-in was at 43°54'35"N 70°1'59"W on the old Rt. 1 headed towards Freeport. Looks like it’s just a wooded area now. I’ll have to drive by and check it out, maybe get some photos unless it’s posted No Trespassing. http://wikimapia.org/#lat=43.9097388&lon=-70.0333035&z=17&l=0&m=b&show=/9971521/
Google Earth has a nice aerial of this site if you use the “time slider” to view the 12/31/2003 imagery. You can see all the parking areas in concentric arcs and what appears to be the remains of the snack booth (and projectionist booth?).
So we have two drive-ins on CT with the same address.
The Brunswick and Bowdoin are both listed at 15 Tibbett’s Drive.
So is the Bowdoin Drive-In the correct address: 15 Tibbett’s Drive, East Brunswick?
The Brunswick Drive-In unknown at this time?
So this aerial that mike uploaded is wrong also. This aerial is the Bowdoin Drive-In.
This should be the correct address (close enough) for the Brunswick Drive-In :
Old Portland Rd & Grant Rd, Brunswick, Maine 04011
Is this correct?
