The Robb&Rowley Theater Company opened the High View Drive-In in 1952. There were parking spaces for 330 automobiles.
As of March 2010 the theater area was very overgrown and the screen was the only visible reminder of the High View.

Here in Texas, it would be called FM2874. Just West of town. Just West of County Rd. 4510
Still barely visible in the shot.

Interesting fact it opened being called the COMMERCE DRIVE-in according to my Motion picture Almanac.
2010 photo of what is left of the screen, according to the info on the photo caption this drive-in might have had an AKA Lilly Drive-In.

Mike the Commerce Drive-In was a different one altogether.
The Screen is the only left of this Drive In. The Snack bar collasped a few years back. The Screen is starting to lean just a bit also! With no attention, This Drive In won’t be able to withstand the outside elements much longer. Sad that there’s no one to rebuild & get it going again..
If you use the coordinates that Sam gives FM2874 and County Rd. 4510 you can still see the screen in the trees.
From Commerce a view of the High View Drive-In Theater.
