Drive in closed in the 1980's and replaced by a grocery store in the 1990's. What remains is this beautiful restored neon sign from the drive-in days.

The
Airway Drive-in opened about 1948. The Airway had one screen but could
accommodate about 1000 cars. The sign which dates to the opening of the drive-in
has been restored and re-purposed for the grocery store which now occupies the
property. I am unsure if the light towers date from the drive-in days or were
added later but they do look good.
Current condition: Very little remains (signs, speaker posts, car ramps, screen structure, etc.)
