Its a little off, Plainville stadium and the bowling alley was where Dicks was and the drive in was across the street where the hotel and gas station are. then United Skates came in where lowes is and some dept store
The video is correct. The Plainville Drive In was west of Crooked Street where Marshall's is now. The Stadium was where Lowe's is now. The CT State Library has aerial photos of Plainville from 1965 on their website. I look at them all the time. Photo #03791 in that collection clearly shows the Drive In being where the shopping plaza is now. The area east of Crooked Street was just trees. That area has changed so much!
Extremely interesting! Thanks for posting this!
Well done!
Very cool!

No. The drive in was definitely not across the street where the hotel is.
