A third screen was added by the late-1970s. Carmike Cinemas took over Martin Theatres in 1985. Martin also operated a nearby drive-in called the Marbo which will have its own CT page soon.
A 1982 aerial view shows the drive-in with its screen and glory, appearing to be in operational condition. It was also listed in the 1984 and 1988 topos, but cannot confirm its condition.
This is a later drive-in, as the 1955 and 1960 aerials show that the theater hasn’t been built yet but what’s strange is that the property has the fan-shape like what drive-ins have. It was already operating in 1972 but was gone by the early-1980s.
Originally known as the Martin Triple when Martin Theatres opened the theater in 1980. Carmike expanded the theater to six screens in 1994. It was closed on January 30, 2009 and was demolished in 2019.
This was originally operated by the Cumberland Amusement Company before the Crescent Amusement Company took it over. Martin Theatres took the theater over from Crescent in January 1961.
Closed on March 6, 1988.
