Eureka Drive-In

In June 1953, Boxoffice magazine reported that the Eureka Drive-In had opened “a half mile east of town”. It was owned by Mr. and Mrs. M. Aley and held 286 cars.

The 1955-56 Theatre Catalog included the Eureka, capacity 300, owners Aley and Strowig.

A 1969 aerial photo showed an intact drive-in immediately south of the Greenwood Cemetery about a half mile east of Eureka. Its screen was gone by 1981. The drive-in site is now an empty wooded lot. A house of the other side of the street has the address of 1472 Q Road.

A closer address is 1475 Q Rd, Eureka, KS.

This puts it right in the middle of the lot. The drive-in was demolished by 1981, including the projector booth/concession stand.
