Lake Drive-In

Chakeres closed Lake Drive - In in 2011. When the property was cleared and repurposed for commercial fleet logistics and trailer sales, the center of the lot had to be entirely leveled:What was removed: The speaker posts, the elevated parking ramps, and the central concession stand/projection booth building were demolished to create a flat, open gravel-and-asphalt lot suited for maneuvering massive semi-trucks and trailers.What remains: The towering main screen structure at the front of the lot and the distinct roadside marquee boundary footprint are the only major pieces of theater infrastructure that were preserved.

Looks like it’s in pretty good shape and could be re-opened.

This is no longer on the Chakeres website, therefore it is closed.
