The actual address is 2657 Lakefield Rd, Lakefield, ON K0L 6X5, Canada. It was located in Lakefield but was just north of Peterborough on County Highway 29, not Water Street. Back then, it was known as Highway 28. Giant Tiger now occupies the former drive-in site, but a very small amount of traces can still be seen to this very day.
