East Glen Park Gary, Indiana ~ Virtual Van Ride ~ 33rd Ave to 36th Ave Blocks

[@larrygolden554]

You're right there at my old hood..3390 Kentucky St. I used to walk to the old wooden building Franklin School. Past my house, at rhe end of 33rd was just all farm fields. I spent many hours roaming ot there with my doggy and BB gun. Thanks for this trip

Way back in 1957-58 I lived in those fairly new (at the time) Apartments at E 45th & Pennsylvania. Walked from there to Lew Wallace. Nice area safe place back then.

[@TheSteelCityStorm]

I remember those being really nice back in the 80’s my moms friend lived there also

[@stlrfn3190]

Your video jogs so many memories. There was a I think a Croatian church across Pennsylvania St. from the apartments. I wonder are the apartments still live able and is the church still active? Also there was a Jewel supermarket on the east side of Broadway about 2-3 blocks south of 45th. I assume it’s long gone. Keep posting the videos they are very interesting even though I only lived there that one year and keep up the good fight to restore Gary to some semblance of its great past.

My mom was bused to Glen Park when she was young because of segregation. That was crazy.

[@howardwilliams9019]

I still go on that side of town every once in a while

[@donaldsavitski9433]

Just like when you guys did the video on the Çàve that used to be on Ridge road and Grant, about two weeks later they tore it down 👏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@frankfolder6535]

[@VC-jx2yw]

Omg, the Cave was the hang out for my sisters and I. It sucks seeing it gone. 😕

[@donaldsavitski9433]

@@VC-jx2yw I liked it back in the day when the girls tending bar used to dress in Cave women outfits. It was like Wilma Flintstone and Betty Rubble serving you drinks. By the way what school did you graduate from and what year?😎✌🏻

HEY! Love your videos! I live in Burns Harbor. Miller Beach is nice. I found one of your braclets! I hope Gary can be restored to the beautiful town it once was!!!!

[@TheSteelCityStorm]

Well hello there neighbor I really appreciate you taking the time to leave your comment Burns Harbor is pretty nice and your soul is Miller Beach I hope that Gary could be restored to be even better than it was because there’s no way they can restore the history however they can sure move ahead and try to bring money into the area. Thank you northern girl I hope you enjoy your bracelet and I appreciate you taking the time to leave your comments I really enjoyed reading them ❤️😎✌️

[@rjp6143]

Goes to show you how close to home we stayed as far as our neighborhood, mine was about two blocks, where my closest friends lived. Not real familiar with the area on the vid, I had friends that I would visit in different neighborhoods but everybody was pretty close knit. And the next block with a different group of friends and so on and so on. During the time you grew up sometimes you hung around in them groups sometimes not. And somethings are hard for me to really recognize because things have changed so much. Keep up the good work👍

[@gibbyswife9218]

Thank you... That was a great ride. Always a great time going down Memory Lane.

[@guillermomartinez2339]

There's a house i want to explore with you around that area...let me know when ...I believe one time it was the Outlaws headquarters

[@BigJEnterprises]

Let's examine Lake Co. an utter failure with urban planning with traffic. Zero brainwork. Look at Route 30 cluster. We need more roads. Gets worse in Saint John area, now we're talking water issues. There should have been another highway that looped around far south near Lowell. Now regard Gary, huge area, look at the grid like streets. There will never be traffic jams. It's already set up, so let's start rebuilding it.

[@guillermomartinez2339]

That house the White's lived in not the Mejia's...the Mejia's lived on 33rd Maryland i lived on 34th Maryland
