The current address where the Mt Clemens Drive In theatre once stood is 45360 N Gratiot, Macomb, Michigan 48042-5442. The original address was 45360 N Gratiot, Mt. Clemens, MI 48043. Simply copy and paste the current address into MapQuest or better yet use the Google Earth street view for a closer look. For whatever reason the address will not open in Google Maps. Russ Milne Ford now occupies the 18 acres that the theatre used for almost fifty years on the North West corner of Gratiot and Hall Rd (M59). If you look at the old aerial photograph (the last picture on the Winter Wonderland web page noted above) you can see how the theatre and the Big Boy restaurant, on the corner of Hall and Gratiot, came together. Our property lines went from the corner of Gratiot and Hall Rd extending West down Hall Rd to a (now closed) road that was called Snover that use to connect Hall Rd and Gratiot. The road has been relocated further West and is now called Marketplace Blvd. The Northern most property line ended just past the theatre exit encompassing about twenty-two acres. Thank you for your interest in my families business. Should you have any other questions please feel free to contact me at EllulEnterprises.com Joseph Ellul Jr., past President Mt. Clemens Drive-In Theatre.
