Hey, TLSLOEWS, I don’t know who this Robin person is that has never posted your photos … but I’d sure love to see all these marquee photos you talk about. The new format of Cinema Treasures makes it very simple to upload photos. I’m also on Facebook in all the Nashville nostalgia groups. Love to see what you have.

I have been in here many times, in fact I once roomed with the manager and his wife, William A and Martha McPherson, and I used to go up to his office in the concessions/projection building and talk to him. Mr Mack had formerly managed the Capitol on 2nd Avenue South. Wonderful people. My wife and I went by their graves in Spring Hill just this past Wednesday to pay our respects.

The green, roundish clump of trees in the field directly behind the store is where the screen stood, facing NorthWest. Verified in 1992 Google Earth view.

I believe I sent a photo to Robin of this drive-in, but I could be wrong, I do know that it was located in North Nashville.

Tsloews,don’t be shy put down what you remember we all love reading stories.

It parked 450 cars and was owned by Crescent Amusement Co. They owned a couple of Drive-ins in the Music City.

The Bordeaux Drive-In must have made it into the 1970s. Listed in 1975 with a capacity for 450 cars.

The former site of the Bordeaux Drive-In on Clarksville Hwy is now occupied by a Kroger store and the new Bordeaux Public Library. A bit of trivia: directly across the street in a little non-descript building was the longtime dentist office of James Denton Sr. DDS. (He pulled my wisdom teeth). His oldest son James “Jamie” Denton is now one of the stars of ABC’s “Desperate Housewives” and has appeared in dozens of films and TV shows. Dr. Denton passed away about 10 years ago. Jamie’s tatoo on his bicep is a tribute to Dr. Jim.
