I grew up in this neighborhood, we moved to Grove Street in 1960, lived their 10 years. Went to all the schools in the neighborhood, two of which are gone. The old school on Baltimore and Heinold Junior high School. Many things has changed in the neighborhood since then. Houses are gone, stores are gone and familiar faces are gone. It always makes me think of the song TIME HAS MADE A CHANGE IN THE OLD HOME PLACE, time has made a change in me. I often think, where is all my childhood friends from back then? Rick, Lester, Johnny, Alan, Mike, Danny, Lenny.😮
