I think everything on that corner has been for sale. The burned out saloon has some work being done. Hopefully the dump drive-in will go too.
I believe the new zoning to 'residential' has caused some property owners to act. The drive-in has preliminary approval to be a concert venue for Motorcycle Week. Foxwoods Resorts is a partner in this potential event. The concert venue will hold up to 30,000 people. No announcement of what bands will play but a rumor making the rounds is Aerosmith. Boxing was supposed to be part of the event but that looks like a no go. Here's a link to today's story.
