The August 8, 1951 issue of The Exhibitor reported that Al Tribbett was named manager of the Fort Drive-In, Macomb, Ill. So it was probably open then.

But if you have a projector you can show your own movies out the back of your apartment on a giant screen.

I love when there are still remnants of closed Drive-Ins around…but it would be weird heading out to the balcony of your apartment to relax and enjoy your view…of a giant movie screen in a mini forest.

The address given is incorrect.

The address for this drive in was 1527 W Jackson St, Macomb, IL. Now the western division of Aspen Court Apartments across the Mexican restaurant.

The address previously given is further east in downtown Macomb. Please update.
