The Skyline’s last ad in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch was on Jan. 31, 1960. The final program was (The) Naked Venus, Guns Don’t Argue, and Walk Into Hell.
That Google map is not helping a bit. Where the Metrolink stop is was, some 50-60 years ago, where Natural Bridge Road ran.
It certainly appears from comparing the photos from 1958 and 1971 that the airport did expand considerably. Currently, the American Airlines St. Louis Ground Operations Center sits on the property.
The drive-in was to the south of Lambert International Airport. I don’t think the drive-in property was bought by the airport. Interstate 70 is between Natural Bridge Road and the airport.
June 21st, 1950 grand opening ad in photo section.
