Valley Drive-In
Reisterstown & Greenspring Valley Rds., Garrison, Md. (between Pikesville and Owings Mills)
years of operation: 1961-78
currently: Valley Center shopping center; includes a 9-screen Loew's multiplex

The second of the two drive-ins built by the local Schwaber circuit, its big draw was the kids' "Candy Cane Land". The current shopping center opened there in 1989.
