Martin Theatres opened the Marbro Drive-In on November 5, 1964, with in-car heaters standard equipment, making it a year round operation. With room for 540 cars and a 120-foot screen, it was billed as the largest drive-in in the area. For the action fans, they had William Holden staring in the first-run “The 7th Dawn" and rounding out the double bill for the Elvis Presley aficionados was “Girls! Girls! Girls!”.

Talk about diverse programming. In 1965, the Marbro Drive-In screened “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World". After four “Mad World” days they had a Bowery Boys quadruple feature, which ran for three days, taking film festivals to a new level.

The Marbro Drive-In closed in 1985.
