did it ever reopen after the storm because the 1990 topo map lists the drive-in and i want to know if it reopened or if it’s a mistake.

after all these years it appears part of the original fencing and the exit road still exist. the castle next to the drive-in was part of a family fun center that closed in 2016 and was demolished. now it’s easier to see the shape of the drive-in

it sucks that it was turned into a wal-mart. and i’m geussing the only reason the sign remains of the former theater is because the removal of the sign would have to be done by the person who buys the place next and i think wal-mart probably didn’t feel like removing it because they’re like the worlds biggest superstore chain and taking down the sign is the least of there worries that is if the sign is still there. although without the sign i’d still reconise it as a former theater.

the projectonists booth is gone. the concession stand looks like it could fall over at any minute. the marquee and screen apear to be in great shape. though the projectors booth location is easy to identify as the removed the speaker poles and installed them in the shaspe of the old projectors booth!

now a food max. which i think has replaced the building that the cinema was in. either that or it was located next to the food max. however i think it was where the food max was because my mom also cooperates the idea that it was where he food max was saying that she remembers the cinema was where the food max is.
