The Crescent Drive-In was opened August 5, 1948 and was operated by the Crescent Amusement Co. The new Kroger that replaced the one on the Crescent Drive-In’s site has a nice arial view of the theater, which was replaced by Kroger and other stores in the early-1970’s. Now there’s a Dollar General, CVS, Office Depot etc.

A Nashville landmark! My parents took me here to see “Snow White” when I was very young. In later years high school friends and I attended a number of movies here during the summers.
