Description
El Monte Drive-In Theatre. 9700 Lower Azusa Road, El Monte, CA 91731. The El Monte Drive-In opened in 1948 and was operated by Cal-Pac Drive-In Theatres (Pacific Theatres). Sometime in the 1970’s it changed to a Spanish language movie house. Then, in very late-1999 or early-2000, it was leveled and taken away to make room for a Home Depot store. http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/3703
