Hartford Drive-In 2322 Berlin Turnpike, Newington, CT
The Hartford Drive-In opened July 12, 1947 with “Bandit of Sherwood Forest” and “Life with Blondie”.
It was operated by the E.M. Loew Theatres chain and was one of the first drive-in’s to open in Connecticut. It also wound up being one of the last four operating until it closed in 1996. There was a drive by a couple preservation groups to rescue and revive the drive-in but I am not sure of the outcome. Notes by Chuck Van Bibber
