Thats a nice dream rg!
Yes,that is a nice screen,but it will most likely never open,
Was just by the old D-I today. Screen is in good condition. Build a projection booth, snack bar and a box office and start showing movies. (Don’t forget to cut down thw trees) rg
Here is a January 2011 photo of the screen. Trees are getting in the way…
Listed in 1980 at Route 73 with Budco as the operator.
No, this one’s where Route 73 and US 130 intersect, where Route 90 (from the Betsy Ross Bridge) ends.
Is this on Admiral Wilson boulevard? My Jersey geography is a little rusty now, although I used to take the NJ Transit bus from AC to Philly all the time. That went down 73, I think.
Now that ballroom is some kind of Christian church. The screen next door still stands.
Across the street are piles of dirt and concrete from what used to be the Mart and the UA. Nothing seems to be happening there.
The old drive-in property still sets there empty, alongside a former department store site, which has been used as a ballroom. Those two sites may be redeveloped into new retail space.
Driveins.com shows the Pennsauken Drive-In owner as Budco. They also claim that “1985 – still operating at this time”.
This was operated by Budco in the late ‘60s/early '70s, maybe later. Budco must have still owned the real estate when they were acquired by AMC because years later there was a “for sale” sign on the property showing AMC as a contact.
