Description
Edwards Drive-In. 4469 E. Live Oak Ave, Arcadia, CA 91006. Architect S. Charles Lee designed a number of drive-ins during his career and some theatres for James Edwards II. Edwards Theatres opened this drive-in, designed by Lee, in 1948. This 750-car site was taken over by Pacific Theatres in 1954 and until its closing and demolition in the late-1980’s it was always called Edwards Drive-In. http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/6411
