The entry stating the Southgate Theater was where the Old Saturn Dealership is incorrect. The Saturn Dealership was originally Walt Hickey Ford before it was sold and became Southgate Ford across the street. The easternmost fenceline of the dealership is still there. The front of the Theater would have beioen where the Meijer roadway directly behind Meijer Gas Statation. the back building line would be inline with the walkway to the Fountain Park Apts near the old Tennis Courts.
The western Theater wall would have been inline with the western edge of the M Gas Station the eastern most wall of the Theater would have been in line with the Flagstar(?) Bank's western property line. The area between the Apartments complex fenceline and the Meijer Parking lot was an open ditch from the walkway to Leroy St.

Actually, the Southgate 4 was on the site of a Saturn dealership which has since also closed. The photo with the RECENT caption is of the Meijer next door which was on the site of the Fort George Drive-In.
