This was a drive-in located to the west of Pittsburgh outside the community of McKees Rocks. I remember seeing “Night of the Living Dead” there. It probably opened in the early 1960’s. I’m not sure when it closed.

The Kenmawr Drive-In was a favorite of pop singer Lou Christie, who lived in nearby Glenwillard. He used to mention this one during between-song banter, usually before “Rhapsody In The Rain”.
