Wow the memories these brought back.In the early 50s as a recently diccharged transplant from Tennessee,[hillbilly], I lived at 6528 Harvard. I remember the pulse and excitement of 63rd & Halsted, Sears, Kresges, and the Southtown. We rode a Penn. RR comuter train from Englewood Station to the Union Station downtown to work, Took 15 min. each way, and a months pass cost 20 bucks if I remember right.We lived there and 62nd & Richmond until 1960, then moved to Maywood. We left the area in 71, havent been back since. I couldn`t believe it when I Googled up 63rd &Halsted and found it was gone. Impossible!!!!
tullahoma
Halsted and found it was gone.
