Van Nuys Drive-In 15040 Roscoe Boulevard, Van Nuys, CA - Construction 1948
Photo & notes Bill Counter 1948 - A June construction photo. Thanks to the Valley Relics Facebook page for locating it for a post.
Architects: William G. Balch and Clifford A. Balch. Thanks to Joe Vogel for the data. He notes that the brothers are credited as designers in the November 15, 1947 issue of Boxoffice as well as in the June 13, 1947 issue of Southwest Builder & Contractor.
Capacity: Originally 890. It ended up as a three screen facility with a 1,400 car capacity. Pacific Theatres did the remodel in the winter of 1982-1983.
Closed: September 2, 1996. It was the last drive-in operating in the Valley.
Status: It was demolished in 1998 after being used by a local dealership as a lot to store cars. There’s now a school on the site. - Notes Bill Counter
