Beverly Drive-In

The Beverly Drive-In, on Highway 49, opened on May 29, 1948, and closed in 1987. It was open again from 2001 until 2005, when it was heavily damaged by Hurricane Katrina. It was named as one of the 10 Most Endangered Historical Places in 2007 by the Mississippi Heritage Trust. In 2007 the drive-in and the land it sat on were listed for sale at just over $1 million. Then, on October 30, 2010, the drive-in burned to the ground in an early morning fire.

On August 20, 2013, the Hattiesburg city council voted unanimously to allow a housing development for senior citizens on the site of the old drive-in.
