Gary, IN: Extremely sad and unbelievable pics but true,
By danman (California) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gary's East Side (IN) (Images of America) (Paperback)
I was born in Gary in 1948 and lived there until I moved away in 1970. I grew up on the East side, near Buffington Park, living there from about 1950 until 1961. After going through the pictures of this book and then looking at some current pictures of Gary online, I am shocked, sad and disappointed at the condition of the city. How can so much destruction happen in such a short amount of time... short relative to the ruins I see. Pictures of the Memorial Auditorium and the once gorgeous Methodist church look more like ancient Roman or Greek ruins that took eons to get that way. My house is gone, replaced by nothing. So much has been destroyed, replaced by nothing but violence and danger. I'm glad I bought the book but what a heartbreak it brought with it.
