The West screen opened with “Beau Geste” and “Kimberly Kim”.
22nd September 1966 with “The man called Flintstone” and “3 on a couch”.
A closer address is 4611 Walker Rd, Windsor, ON N8W 3T6, Canada.
This is the address of the SilverCity Windsor Cinemas which is located at the intersection of Walker and Essex County Rd 4 or Provincial Road. There is no trace of the drive in remaining.
its now called Essex County Rd 46 aka Provincial Rd.
Is HWY 98 known as something else now? I’m not getting it to map on Google Maps.
As indicated above by Mike Rivest, this was originally with 20th Century Theatres as the Twin Drive-In, then later went to Famous Players as the Famous 4 Drive-In after Famous Players absorbed 20th Century’s operations.
This opened by 20th Century Theatres on September 22nd, 1966 and expanded to 4 screens on June 19th, 1981. It was renamed Famous 4 Drive-In on June 26th, 1981 and closed in 1990. The SilverCity cinema opened on its site in 1997.
