This was replaced by either a shopping center or mobile home park.
It also must have opened in the late 50’s or 60’s cause it is not listed in my Motion Picture Almanac 1956. Five other Drive-ins are listed.
O.K.
It was listed in the St. Petersburg Times in 1963, if that helps.
It’s listed here. South Pasadena is a separate city from St. Pete, even though it’s only about a square mile or two.
The theater added 50-75 car spaces in a vacant part of the lot for the run of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid during its extended run. It was built by Ben Cohen of Holiday Amusements / Cincinnati Ohio.
