Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Arapaho Road Drive-In on May 24, 2010 at 11:30 pm

Don, I’m guessing your refering to “AGAIN FOR THE LAST TIME”. You took it the wrong way, I meant it because the address had already had been requested to be changed by SiliconSam and it had in fact been changed and I was now again asking it to be changed “AGAIN FOR THE LAST TIME”. Perhaps I could have worded it better? Your comment would have been better to have been sent to me via my email which you could have gotten by clicking on my name, but here it is, if you have any further comment.

PLEASE ADD TO THE ADDRESS:

Thanks, SilconSam, I think it’s the building behind the building with the white roof?

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about East Main Drive-In on May 24, 2010 at 1:50 am

SPELLED WRONG, PLEASE CORRECT SPELLING, IT’S:

chisHolm.

PLEASE CHANGE ADDRESS TO:

3001 MAIN STREET.

This drive-in had 1 screen and was around from ABOUT 1961-1975. Anyone with better info, please add it.

This drive-in was near the Main Gate of the U.S. Naval Air Station Dallas where I spent some time different years, but I never saw any evidence of the drive-in.

The Chisholm Trail was a trail used to drive cattle in the late 19th century from Texas to the railhead in Kansas. The cattle drive would take 2 months.

PLEASE CHANGE ADDRESS TO:

12332 UNIVERSITY MALL COURT.

The present address is way off!

I feel your folks enthusiasm, but I don’t think any of the following have anything to do with the UNIVERSITY 16.

PLEASE TRY TO STAY ON TOPIC, I DON’T KNOW WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT, NOR DOES ANYONE ELSE!

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Monte Theatre on May 23, 2010 at 10:40 pm

Chuck1231, When you click on the map it gives you the whole United States, so that Court House Square address has to go. 300 block of East Main Street is good start, but any chance you can come up with the exact address. It looks like the entire block is old buildings, so I think the theater is still standing.

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Century Berryessa 10 Theaters on May 23, 2010 at 10:03 pm

We are so wastefull! First they tear down buildings. Next they spend 3 1/3 million $’s building theaters. Bout 10 years later, 3 miles away, Cinemark/Century builds Century 20 Great Mall. So much for long range planning.

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Willowbrook Cinema on May 19, 2010 at 1:26 am

When you go to the map, it shows the United States. My guess is because my Rand McNally lists no Willowbrook in New Jersey. I think Willowbrook Shopping Center is in Wayne, but I don’t know for sure, I’m 40 miles south of Chicago, what do you think?

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Palace Theater on May 19, 2010 at 12:43 am

The Google Satellite Photo Red Dot is about a block too far north. If you click on the Hico Chamber of Commerce, which is 114, that’s fairly close.

Late 1970’s 4 screens.

Early 1980’s sold to Cinema Centers Corporation.

I THINK it was open from 1961-1970, can anyone find out for sure?

University of Texas SW Med Center and

Pedratic Primary Care Center,

was a drive-in!

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Cinemark River Hills Movies 8 on May 18, 2010 at 7:48 pm

PLEASE CHANGE THE NAME TO:

CINEMARK RIVER HILLS MOVIES 8.

This is how Cinemark lists the theater.

One source I found lists this theater as opening November 1, 1991, another source 1995, anyone know for sure?
