hoppy, the second Drive-In was located on the site/area of the old Picwood. It was called the Pico Drive-In, which opened in 1934. It later moved to the site of were the Olympic once sat. (Martin Cadillac dearship now)

A piece of unknown history to many is that next to the first drive-in set up in New Jersey the Olympic is the second drive-in built.

When I grew up in the 1950’s in Rancho Park the 2 most famous theatres were the Picwood and Olympic drive in. Back then they were called passion pits. The last time I went there was 1965 with my girlfriend to see VIVA LAS VEGAS. I will attach a site to see some theatres I posted under Webshots including the Olympic Drive In.

My family frequented this drive-in when I was a child. It is missed as is every other Drive-in of the past.
