The very first frame brough back so many memories as a child. The 1966 Hough Riots brought in the Ohio National Guard. A group was stationed outside of that s store to prevent looting. During the day neighborhood children and I went up to the guard. We were staring awe at the Guards with the rifles and helmets that they had on. They also rolled around in cool jeeps. They looked like real life GI Joe toys that were popular during the 60's. I'm 70 years old this year and imagine has stayed with me all these years
I grew up on Crawford Rd., I shake my head every time I come back home. I am 60 now and thing’s have gotten worse. I recalled when everyone trying to move to East Cleveland
The city did lose 60% of its population from 1950 so yes it is half empty. There's some gentrification movement in the city bringing in new money but Cleveland has a long way to go before the inner city becomes better. You can think of Cleveland as little Detroit. Like Detroit, Cleveland has most its amenities set up outside the city.
@syed I dint think Cleveland loss 50% of population and ur right it is like a smaller Deroit Area. Redevelopment are focused more on the westside and the suburbs has all the stores and attractions.
@@Ashley-oi2uw it's up to the people of the neighborhood to redevelop & bring shops & stores in(other than corner store/smoke shops). Bay Village is a great place, Rocky River is beautiful, Lakewood used to be idyllic...but those places are the way they are because people in Bay Village, etc. take care and care for their neighborhoods. It's a shame what the Eastsode has become...but it's the fault of the people who live there. Without honesty and hardwork, Cleveland will stay in this suspended state of animation.

Just saw my grandparent's old house. So many memories good and bad
Like my old steel mill hood Slavic Village
Thanks - was baby nearby….earliest memory is of Air Raid Warden walking down darkened street during air raid drill, WW2!👏
I know the area well. I used to do home physical therapy up till 2015. Great memories and people. Thank you for the video.
I truly miss the place. Grew up on Gruss Ave. There was a elementary school named Iowa Maple.
GOOD VIDEO , MY HOMETOWN
Maybe someday in the future I'll do a walk about Slavic Village the old Woolen Mills n rails to trails

Real Hood the VA hospital saved that area with many jobs for minorities
Where is crack street?
So many turns. At what time does he get on Wade Park?

Justin, i used to go get my ID made at that plaza. Heard the License spot is no longer there.

Blacks can live in places like this because they get government assistance to them it's like a European socialist Paradise
You are so racist a lot of whites get government assistance, there are by far more whites on assistance than blacks

High crime , lack of development in the inner city,
