It is a great place to take a brake and cool off if you are in Texas.
Back in the 1950's this was the marquee for Meadowbrook Drive-In. It was a popular place to enjoy movies in the privacy of your car. It would accommodate 500 to 700 cars. Its specialty was second run triple features.
Unfortunately, it closed in 1970.
In 1980, it became the marquee for Cowtown BMX bicycle track. That is why you see the bike mounted on top. It too has closed.
The screen is still visible even from I-30 East of Fort Worth. The marquee is only visible when riding on the bicycle trail that runs along where the screen is. It is covered by trees and growth. My neighbor is an avid bicycle rider. He knows and has been on most of the bicycle trails around here. The photo of the marquee was made by him on one of his rides. All other photos are mine.
The area now is used by Waste Management for storage of dumpsters.
