Mifflintown, PA

The Midway Theatre in Mifflintown, PA is a very enticing sight off the roadway. This historic drive-in is still very much in business. 11-00

Latrobe, PA

Here are a couple of shots of the Hi-Way Drive-in Theatre located along Route 30 in Latrobe, PA. During the spring & fall, they have flea markets on the weekends. During the summer they still have movies every night. They still have the old cement posts that use to hold the microphone but the sound is now via your radio on a certain AM station.

Here are a couple shots of the Allegany Drive-in Theatre. The screen serves as the ultimate backdrop for a snow covered day. 11-00

Update 12/05 : The Allegany Drive-in is gone. Many thanks to David Wagner for update. 12-05

The Elmira Drive-in Theatre of New York has a unique screen tower that looks like factory smokestacks from the distance.

Not sure if this grand relic is still around. 11-00

Update 07/06 : The Elmira Drive-in is still alive and kicking, showing current movies on a nightly basis. Many thanks to Jake for update. 07-06


Bath Drive-in
Bath, NY

The Bath Drive-in of Bath, NY sports the familiar lettering "closed for the season" on its marquee. Let's hope this is only temporary. 11-00

Update 07/07 : Just a note that Bath drive in has been closed since the fall of 2005, a very sad state for many of us here. However, as of July 20 2007 it has re-opened with the Rat Movie and Pirates 3. It will be open weekends only hopefully for a long long time. Many thanks to Dave Bentley for update. 07-07


Silver Lake Drive-in Theatre
Perry, NY

The Star Lake Drive-in also sports the "closed for the season" text on its sign. Hopefully, the drive-in will reopen again. This Perry theater appears to be in great condition and the snow just adds to its freshness. 11-00

Watertown, NY

Over in Watertown, New York is the Black River Drive-in Theatre. Now obscured by overgrown brush, remnants of the Black River still remain, from the Marquee (left, bottom left) to the projection booth and screen tower (seen in the distance bottom right).

Update 08/06 : Very recently, a local couple put a lot of work into the theater, building a new concession stand and refurbishing the screen tower and yesterday (August 18, 2006) the drive-in was opened to the public for the first time in over 20 years! Many thanks to Erin Bastedo for update. 08-06
