If you look at an aerial view of this site on Google Maps you can see the outline of the parking spots. Street view shows the sign is still there as well as the screen. It looks like there’s a driving range at the site, but the aforementioned golf course actually goes around the property. There doesn’t seem to be a cemetery on site either.
Opened on 5th April 1956.

I’m researching the history of Michigan drive-in theaters and would be very interested in hearing from anyone who remembers the Hi-Vue/Sceen theater. If you were or are a resident of Durand, a former patron of the theater, or an ex-employee who would like to share your stories, please contact me.

The drive-in site is now a golf driving range. The screen tower is still standing with green siding on all sides.
