The Pine Motor Drive-in theater was built on 12-acres. Prior to opening, the land was cleared, drained, graded, and graveled in order to provide cars with smooth movement and a clear view of the screen. On entrance, cars entered through a "pine" themed two-lane box office in order to efficiently manage traffic before a show. Loudspeakers as well as Motiograph in-car speakers were used in order to maximize audio output during screenings.
The snack bar was also designed under the "pine" theme of the drive-in, presenting stained wood counters and cabinets to customers. The snack bar was fitted with windows and wired with sound, ensuring that customers could come inside without missing the film.
The projection booth was 275 feet from the screen, located in the snack bar along with the restrooms and business office. It was fitted with "the latest equipment," promising carbon arc lights which could illuminate the screen well from a distance. The screen was 62 feet wide and 54 feet high, with a display size of 51 feet by 40 feet. It also honored the venues pine theme. The screen's poles were set in concrete, allowing it to withstand wind up to 100 miles an hour.
It's important to note that this drive-in was dedicated to the community from its conception. The manual labor and materials used in construction were as locally sourced as possible, as well as the name itself being chosen from a selection of ideas submitted by local residents. This shows how connected the city of Roseburg was to this drive-in, even before the first movie was shown.
