The drive-in stood derelict with the ramps, roads, base of marquee and brick wall remaining until 2015 when the site was redeveloped. Now an Arby’s and a Loves Gas station are on the site. Google maps hasn’t been updated and still shows the old abandoned site.

The 2008 google street view shows the remains of the street sign/marquee. It was gone by 2013 but the base might still remain.

The concession building also still exists, it can be seen on google street view which was updated earlier this year with it still there. looks like the projection room was on top of the concession building, it has a second story room in the middle of the building.

A more accurate address is actually 4920 U.S. 80, Tuskegee, AL.

The screen does still appear to be standing.

Found this one, approximate address is 1303 Mine St, Nashville, AR 71852. Nashville Rural Water Association now occupies part of the site but you can still see some of the old ramps on Google Earth.

The old roadside marquee/sign still remained as of April 2014 on Google Street view.

The front ramps are still clearly visible on Google Earth.

This one is now a vacant lot that’s overgrown, the outline of the ramps can still be seen on google earth. Also it looks like the land has been for sale for at least a decade, probably longer.

Found this one, it was located at the current address of 4012 Neely Dr South, Pine Bluff, AR 71603. It was there up to 1971 on historic aerials and demolished/redeveloped by 1994. T & N Electric now occupies the site.

The concession or projector room building still exists as well, same size and position on historic aerials.

Apart from a couple of paddock bomb cars on the front ramps, everything still looks the same as of 2017.

This is another site where the concession building still remains, in fact for some reason the google street view car drove right up the road and got a great look at it!

I’m 90% sure that the concession building still stands in front of a new bigger building with a white roof in the rear centre of the property.

Screen was destroyed as of April 2016, its scattered across the ramps. Probably blown down?

I think the real address for this one is 80400 Ashton Avenue, North Loup, NE 68859. The 1981 aerial shows the remains of the ramps and presumably the concession building. The concession building appears to still remain on the site.

The concession building remains, comparing historical aerials from the drive-in and current show the building is still on the church property.

kennerado commented about King Drive-In on Nov 17, 2019 at 2:14 am

The 1973 aerial still shows the ramps, I’m guessing they just used them for the go-kart track. Traces of the ramps could be seen up to 1995.

The foundation of the concession building looks like its still there, the site is vacant except for a storage shed built on the site, it also looks like it was used for rodeo’s at some point.

A more accurate address is 1522 TX-114, Crosbyton, TX. Nothing remains of this one, a 1965 aerial shows the drive-in with the ramps derelict with the concession building in the middle of the field.

The remains of the ticket box were still there in August 2013 on Google street view, hard to see from the aerial because of the trees.

A closer address is 1075 US-87, Eden, TX 76837. This is the Slumber Inn, the drive-in was next door and the remains of the ramps, concession building and drive way can be seen on google earth. There’s a 2018 street view that shows what’s left of the concession building.

It wasn’t open in 1964, historic aerials show an empty lot in that year then the drive-in is there in 1973. It was still intact in 1985 then overgrown by 1995. its now Riverside Meadows apartments.

The concession building appears to still exist, the site is now a farm and still has the same outline. Also the remains of the road sign are still there.

Looks like it was closed by 1962, an aerial photo from that year shows the ramps being overgrown.
