Located in Commerce City, the 88 Drive-In Theater is the last of its kind in metro Denver, with the next closest in Fort Collins.
The credits may soon roll on the metro area's last remaining drive-in movie theater — theat 88th and Rosemary in Commerce City — which is being shuttered by its owner to make room for a"multi-tenant warehouse building," according to local officials.
"The decision to close the theater was not made by the city, and Commerce City has not asked or encouraged the drive-in to close its operation," says the government Facebook post dated June 1."The property owners are requesting a zoning change to allow a multi-tenant warehouse building to take the place of the theater."
"The 88 Drive-In would like to set the record straight and tell you about our reasons for selling our beloved drive-in theatre," the statement says."Firstly, this decision was not made lightly and was a joint decision of the family. We are not a big, greedy corporation. We are one small family with a family-run business. ...We were not approached by any buyers prior to putting the property up for sale.
Developers want to rezone the 88 Drive-In property from a PUD, or Planned Unit Development, to an I-1: Light-Intensity Industrial District.In order for a multi-tenant warehouse to go up, the 88 developers would need to get council to approve the rezoning of the 6.91-acre lot from a PUD to an I-1: Light-Intensity Industrial District.
