My great Grandparents (Bill and Agnes Oleksyn) sold the Drive In Theater that once stood their and decided to venture into the world of shopping outside of Downtown. It never quite became a shopping mecca but it was sure a huge part of my childhood. They really lived the American Dream having come from Poland as young adults with nothing and making many, many real estate deals in Flint and Gennessee county. They remembered a Flint that thrived. Must have been something to see.
