Google shows the ramps and what is left of the concession stand. I remember the screen was up for quite a while after it closed, but it either was tore down or fell down and was cleared away.
The street photo is way off for the Skyline Theater. It’s basically located at 3909 N. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd on the west side of the road. It was completely torn down and is now overgrown with trees and brush.
I worked the concession stand at the 11th Street Drive In the final two years it was open. It was certainly a great experience for me and boy did we show some oddball films at that place. Still, I will never forget Kenny Rogers' film “Six Pack” packed the place for weeks on end.
The information presented here is not correct. The Tahlequah Drive-In was north of the town and is now an auto salvage yard. The Green Country Cinemas were built before the Drive-In was closed because of high winds that blew down the screen.

A recent Google Maps satellite photo shows that the screen is gone and very little appears to be left of this drive in.
