Had my car stolen in Harvey - in about 15 minutes - as soon as I went into an office. Also did evictions. The Sheriff''s crew would put the new furniture on the curb. It would be stolen by passers-by. The owner didn't care since it was bought on credit.
My husband was born and raised there .We spent the first 30 years of our marriage there just moved out 6 years ago It was once a great place at the end it was extreme ghetto
The open land, lots of it at 11.30. Could be the site of Sinclair, where my Dad worked, or one of the other blue-collar "plants." Those collapsed apartment buildings were newish in 1961.
You went right by my family's church on 150th and Roby. My Uncle and Aunts house is right across the street from Second Baptist. So many memories of Harvey. Dixie square Mall was a favorite place for us to go. I lived in Detroit, and every summer we went to visit family in Harvey. Sad to see how it is now, but its a sign of the times. Thanks for the memories. I watch your videos all the time.
I miss Bernetti's Pizza on Halstead by the Little Calumet River, when it closed in the 70's 😢 Papa Burnetti working the Pizza oven while his wife rang you up to pick it up!
Well, things just got tougher for the south suburban communities of Cook County. Reassessment notices went out from the Assessor's office. The tax bills are now out of sight. Some poor homeowners got 200% tax increases due to land values. Unless they appeal and win, many remaining families aren't going to make it.
Most people want believe it. But I think Harvey will come back. I have 3 rentals there so far and now planing to open a truck top on the edge of Harvey.
The depressed communities and neighborhoods have nice-looking blocks where folks still have pride in ownership...but when you look closer and see the security storm doors and rolldown shutters, you know it's the 'hood.
Lived in Markham and had to go to school in Harvey and yea it was rough moved to Myrtle Beach when I was 18 and man there is a big difference a the way of living and the diversity
Yet another terrific in depth look with a mix of forward and side shot video and a soundtrack that really lets it sink in. It is actually better (for me) than going there since I would not have that sixth sense where exactly to go to get the right feel of the place. So my question to you Chris is how do you know where to go since you are not from the area? Megathanks for your hard work!
Hey Chris why don't you do the History of Phoenix instead of just this drive through footage that you have on the 2nd half Harvey video footage. That's what I was looking for on this video. Thank you!
I’m surprised u didn’t drive past those projects on 154th Dixie Highway. They are basically falling apart but a couple people still live there. Its crazy I seen they have a new door but next door the roof is caved in
So sad to see the blight. I could smell the poverty and despair not to mention the amount of rat crap in those abandoned homes that have been empty for years.

41:40 Good ole Coolidge Middle School. I taught there for quite a few years. It was actually not a bad place to work. Good staff people, mostly good kids. Looks like they have remodeled and added a new addition to the building since I left.
@@chrishardenarchivesl grew up across 394 and the cornfield. I could see ford heights and its water tower from my bedroom. I went to school and played sports with people from ford heights. I know there was plenty of evil there, but there were also some really fine people living there. I actually played football with a guy whose name was literally Sir George Washington. I wouldn’t be surprised if he saw this video. This was in the mid 90’s. All the best to my friends from ford heights!
This is very common occurrence in Cook County. The original home owners get old and die or move out. These homes have sometimes not been well maintained as they aged and on social security. The prices of these homes decrease and buyers with less financial means buy these homes and do not maintain them either. The lower the property values become, the more undesirable people move in and the cycle of poverty and neglect continue as the businesses also move out with lack of customers with disposable income.
How does one town get so bad? Globalism. What causes globalism? H. sapiens aka The lowest form of life that ever lived, or ever will live aka A weak, failed @bortion of a species.

I did. They're somewhere in there. They are crazy looking no doubt.
The writing eas already on the wall in the 1950s. 😮
The Ole STOMPING groundz.

Hi Chris, I've been watching your channel for a long time and I am fascinated with watching bad neighbourhoods. Where do you find your cool music?
I subscribe to a service called Musicbed and just by searching and being selective through their site over the years.
I grew up in Homewood HF grad class of 88 enjoy these videos !
That street looks so bare. There are no flowers and not enough trees. It's very depressing.
some neighborhoods in harvey look decent and well-maintained, but they're rare
Used to be 2 great strip bars here, Skybox and Club O. One owner went to jail, the other was murdered, both gone now.
You going to get a flat tire on that street
I enjoyed this video. 😊❤
I used to live in Harvey, in the late 1970’s. Boy has it changed. Did you go to the Dixie Square Mall?
Yeah I drive past the site starting at around 10:00

Just curious... did you also teach 5/6th grade at Madison school in South Holland in the late 70s? If so, you were my teacher!
@@tammieswierczyna Sorry but, no. I was at Coolidge from about 2000 to '06. Seven years total.
Hey Chris, you being from Detroit does it still shock you to see all the abandoned decrepit homes in other cities or are you used to it?
I'll still get surprised at times, aka Ford Heights but I've seen a lot at this point

Where's all the people?

The bonehead factor, that's how.
Grate place to build a Land fill or a scrap yard.
Eric Kellogg ruin harvey
Q: How Does A City Get To Be This Bad?
A: Democrats.
People that line their own pockets n don't really give a care period. Doesn't matter if they have an R or D next to their name.
How does one town get so bad?
Globalism.
What causes globalism?
H. sapiens aka The lowest form of life that ever lived, or ever will live aka A weak, failed @bortion of a species.
What is the common thread between Harvey Detroit, Michigan and other ghetto in the United States?
Poverty and trying to better your quality of life.

You must not have seen some of the shit holes in the south then?? Dumb comment.
