The Centereach Theater was a typical shopping center theater of the 60’s and 70’s. The theater closed in the 1980’s and was converted into stores.
A few years ago the entire shopping center was torn down and replaced with new shopping center, so nothing remains of the old Centereach Theater.

The fire occured in the late 80’s/early 90’s in the cheap johns discount store and spread to damage the theatre. I dont beleive that it sustained fire damage, but major smoke and water damage.
Is that when it closed?
I somehow stumbled onto a Drive-In site and was looking for LI theatres. It’s pathetic how poor the site is. But one thing sparked my curiosity. They mentioned a Drive-In in Centereach. There was none to my knowledge can anyone confirm?
If I am not mistaken, there was a drive in somewhere around where the mall is now, but not entirely sure where….I think near where Rt 25 and Rt 347 meet.
The Smithtown All Weather Drive-In was the drive-in located near Rt25 and Nesconset Highway but that wouldn’t be considered Centereach.
True, but I wonder where the Drive In site got the info to begin with.
I saw the Centereach listing on Drive-Ins.com. I can’t find another source for a drive-in theater in Centereach. Maybe it’s a mistake. That website also lists a drive-in theater for Brooklyn which is here. I’ve never heard of a drive-in theater in Brooklyn either. Maybe it was a drive-in restaurant.
And I know for certain there was one in Moriches and where. The problem is I’m having difficulty getting enough material together for more than a skeletal posting. Also, they seem to have fallen behind on new theatres. I put up a posting on the 15th and the last newbies they show are for the 14th. On my three previous creations I saw results in 24 hours or less.
Your theater should appear tomorrow. The person that posts the new theaters is on vacation.
I figured it was something, not just me since there’d been no activity since the 14th. But it was my baby and I’m just as anxious to see it up as previously. Then I can pursue a couple of others in the works.
