Drive-in movies were a popular form a entertainment in the Columbus and Phenix City area in times past. Drive-ins dotted the landscape around town. There was the Rexview Drive-in on 45th Street where Columbus Technical College now sits. It was torn down in 1982. The Edgewood Drive-in was on Macon Road. It closed in the mid 70's. There was also the Victory Drive-in at North Lumpkin Road and Victory Drive. The Columbus Drive-in was on Benning Road. The Phenix Drive-in was on 14th Street in Phenix City.
