Blvd. Drive in Theatre

Owner and operator, Wes Neal, says: "A personal welcome goes for all of you to visit the Boulevard. The Boulevard leads the way in digital technology, and was the first drive in theater in the world to install digital sound. Nestled among the trees a block west of 1-35 just across the Johnson County line is the survivor of the great drive-in theater age. The Boulevard Drive-In, located at 1051 Merriam Lane, has operated continuously since June 30, 1950. We are the oldest theater of any kind in the metro area that has operated continuously, said owner Wes Neal. Years ago, Merriam Lane was Southwest Boulevard, that is why we call it the Boulevard. With all of the trees surrounding it, you can't see it from anywhere but the air.
