Boxoffice, March 14, 1953: “Kerasotes Theatres has purchased equipment from St. Louis Theatre Supply and is prepared to start erection of a screen tower for the Havana (Ill.) Drive-In soon. Kerasotes operates the Lawford and Kaye theatres in Havana.”

The 1998 aerial photo shows a larger building in place of the concession stand/projector booth. Plus, there are various items around the structure taking up considerable room on the property.

Probably fair to say that based on the photo, the drive-in was closed by 1998 as the structure is far larger and denotes a different function compared to the projector booth.

Today, the only thing remaining from the drive-in days is the entrance and exit roads to the property.

was open in 1988 and may have been open in 1998 but it was closed in 2005.
