South Virginia Street

South Virginia Street in Reno, just north of Gentry. On the left, hidden behind another sign, you can see the marquee for the Midway Drive-In. This drive-in theater used to sit where the Peppermill is now. It was later replaced by the Century Theaters dome. Now the Peppermill parking garage is on the site.

On the right-hand side of the street is the Sun Cafe.
