The drive-in was demolished. Only the outline, ramps, entrance/exit roads, and foundation of the concession stand/projector booth remains.
Today, the property is still undeveloped, but completely overgrown with trees. The old entrance/exit roads still sit intact on the south side of a storage facility which was built before the drive-in closed.
Grand opening ad posted. Closed in 1983. Article:
The Showtown Twin with a 1,500 car capacity and 2 120x60ft screens opened on June 19, 1969 with “Romeo & Juliet” along with “Love With Proper Stranger” at Screen 1 and “Destroy All Monsters” along with “House Of 1000 Dolls” at Screen 2 (Both Screens Listed As North And South Screens). It was closed in the 1990s.
