From what I read about this drive-in, it was owned by National Amusements at the time of closing and it was torn down and became part of the Hyattsville Metrorail station.
My family lived in the Hyattsville area from about 1963 to 1965, when I was a small child, and I remember that the Queens Chapel Drive-In had one of the most EXCELLENT playgrounds down in front of the screen. I remember seeing “Goldfinger” there!
This drive-in was pedestrian friendly, with benches near the concession stand. When I was a kid, I used to take the bus here to catch films like The Silencers & Sons Of Katie Elder.
I thought it was much newer but i am 95% sure i saw “WILLARD” and “WHO SLEW AUNTIE RUE” there in the early 70’s. Thanks Jack for getting me here. Sure thought it was built later than 1955.
Approx. address for this drive-in was 5600 Ager Road.
