A closer address is 1520 IL-23, Streator, Illinois. This points to the old entrance road of the drive-in which is now called Benchmark Industrial Drive.
Today, the propery is an industrial park with no trace of the drive-in remaining.

The Streator Drive-In launched on June 10, 1949 with “Restless” starring Robert Young. The drive-in ended its operation on September 18, 1982 with a double-feature of “Slumber Party Massacre” and “Screamers.” The ozoner was demolished June 30, 1990 to make way for an industrial park.
I remember going there as a teenager in the mid 70s. I believe it closed down around 1979?
