Stewart Drive-In

The Stewart Drive-In was at the intersection of Stewart Avenue (now Metropolitan Parkway) and Cleveland Avenue. It was the sister theater to the Piedmont Drive-In. They both closed in the late-1960’s and were replaced with a K-Mart-like store called Arlans which did not last very long. The Arlans building is still standing and is anchored by a Kroger Citi Center.

Before it closed, you could see the huge screen as you drove along I-85.
