A short-lived drive-in, it was built in the early-1950’s near the Pullman City Playfield. This one didn’t last long, as there were two other drive-in’s in town, and this was shut down in the late-1950’s. An old box office book showed that it had a capacity of 250 cars.

Here is aerial view
So it would have been at the south west corner of the intersection of NE Stadium Way and SE Nevada St.
Good eye. I actually did look at the aerial before posting it, and if the circle is the rotunda, the drive-in would have been on the corner of SE Nevada Street & Olympia Avenue. I have a bit of an issue with it, though.
Here are some photos I found from a WSU photo archive. There’s a bridge in these photos that doesn’t correspond with the intersection. It does show it being close to the Pullman playfield and baseball field, along with a railroad that goes along Riverview Street. http://digitalemerson.wsulibs.wsu.edu/items/show/3672 http://kaga.wsulibs.wsu.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/hutchison&CISOPTR=311&CISOBOX=1&REC=4 http://kaga.wsulibs.wsu.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/hutchison&CISOPTR=453&CISOBOX=1&REC=11
On the left of the playfield is the Main Street bridge.
