Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Franklin Drive-In on May 3, 2010 at 8:34 pm

I found two other possible locations:

Highway 11 and Junction Road (I couldn’t find a Junction Road)?

84 College (that looks like it could have been a site for a drive in).

What do you think?

Anyone know the real site of the drive-in?

The drive-in was opened SOMETIME BETWEEN 1948-1950 and closed 1981-1985. If anyone can come up with better date or more info, please post it.

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Eagle Theater on May 3, 2010 at 7:26 pm

Interesting that Jackson Hewitt Tax Service, that is right next door to the theater site, has an address of 20846 Central Avenue East???

I’ve seen the Eagle Theater listed as being on Main Street??

I THINK it was open from AROUND 1935-1955.

AKA AS:

LEXINGTON PARK CINEMA 6.

Opened ABOUT 1990?

Run by JF Theaters 1990?

Run by American Multi-Cinemas (AMC) 2005.

Don’t bother to use the map, it’s way off.

Better to use the AMC Website, go to:

Selecet Market
click Washinton DC
Select Theater
click AMC Loews Lexington
click Submit
click Map
click Hybrid.

I THINK you are in the area of the theater.

Anyone know if I’m right, I haven’t been around Pax River in years?

I THINK it opened in 1969 and closed in 1984.

It was run by ABC North Central Theaters and by Plitt from 1980-1984.

I kinda think Kohl’s is in a brand new building and not in the theater, can anyone tell us for sure?

Notice in the below Cinema Tour Site that the street listed is:

EAST CIVIC CENTER DRIVE

and the town is:

CATHEDRAL CITY??

The address number is exactly the same, so I think the 19 photos are for this theater. What do you think?

Notice the outside signs just say, PICKFORD THEATER.

I see the sign says MALL CINEMAS is that another name for the theater?

The red dot is off a bit in the Google Satellite Photo, the theater is to the northwest in the Ohio Valley Mall Shopping Center, sorta to the northeast part of the building, with the lighter roof, right?

PLEASE CHANGE THE ADDRESS TO:

SHAW AVENUE & SIERRA VISTA PARKWAY

THANK YOU

The theater is south west of the red dot and shows up as

CRITENON CINEMAS 16

which must have been another name of the theater.

The old address showed up on Google over 2 miles off to the west!

The theater was also run by North American Cinemas.

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Buccaneers Cinema Bar & Grill on Apr 29, 2010 at 8:26 pm

Help me out here, I’m a little confused with the location, and the Google Map sure dosen’t help.

It puts the cinema right in the middle of Hillsborough and Sheldon Road along with Ribley Chiropractic, which has an address of 8525, that makes no sense.

It would fit in between 8615 Dollar General and 8635 Castellano DMD, so it could have been in those big buildings in back, but Bilmar Station is 8501 and Auldi is 8521?

Is what is now Hillsborough Square Shopping Center what used to be Buccaneer Square Shopping Center?

I hope someone can explain this all to me.

Thanks

Ret. AKC (NAC) CCC Bob Jensen, Manteno, Illinois commented about Arcadia Twin on Apr 29, 2010 at 6:40 pm

PLEASE CHANGE THE ADDRESS TO

1332 E OAK STREET.

THANK YOU.

For some reason Google Maps is showing a location about 3 blocks off from the correct location.

I have also found another location of 1340 E Oak Street, But when entered in Google it also is 3 blocks off.

Other locations that are close are to these theaters sites, so either location would fit in here somewhere, are:

1203 Mc Donald's
1328 Wachovia Bank
1329 Taco Bell
1330 Winn-Dxie
1332 Domino’s Pizza
1409 Bank of America

If anyone can add any info to this, that would be GREAT!

Carmike Cinemas also ran these theaters.
