I'm quite curious now.

lougheed drive-in movie theatre. it was built in 1949. i can't remember when it closed... but the projector screen was still standing i think until sometime in the 80's before they tore it down.
argh i can't find any pictures. all i can find mention of it is this:

and it's on one some of the later maps here:

there are still patches of the original ashpalt and concrete in the empty lot which the gilmore station is on. dominion street did not exist back then so that corner was much larger than what you see now. the dominion bridge steel yards was right behind it, where you see dick's lumber and everything behind it is today.
[edit] 89blkcivic mentioned cascades. i don't remember that one as well, but it was in a different location further south. they existed around the same time and should be on one of the later maps in that link i posted above.
