From Billboard, May 22, 1954: “Blue Hills Drive-In Theater Corporation, Bloomfield, Conn., has erected an eight-foot aluminum fence around its property at a cost of $10,000.”
I’d say that this drive-in needs to be re-classified as “demolished”. There is no evidence of a screen, concession stand/projector booth, or even ramps as the field has been plowed or leveled. The only remnant of the drive-in remaining is part of the entrance road. http://tinyurl.com/zgetnst
There is a small greenhouse and some gardens in part of the area…Concession stand possibly still in use as storage. See photos. Such a shame!

There was a capacity for 500 cars.
I’m not sure this should be classified as demolished. The property still is vacant, but the concession building remains and is currently used for storage.
