Rouge Park was much the same way. The cops got their jollies however, so you would probably be a recipient of a five battery flashlight in your face. He'd never ask you to get out the car, just get moving. No ident, nothing like that.
I hear it was cops and badguys on the Eastside.
jjaba much preferred a house party in her basement.

I lived exactly 4 blocks from Balduck Park, athough I was not one to cruise the park. Now I know why the city closed the roadway going from Chandler Park Drive to behind Balduck Park hill.
That sounds confusing... they should have named the main road going thru Balduck Park... Balduck Park Drive... and NOT Chandler Park Drive. 
The boulevard east of Outer Drive should have been named Balduck Park Drive... the boulevard west of Outer Drive should have remained Chandler Park Drive. Granted all 3 are the same long continuous street.

I've heard about Alter Rd. to watch submarine races. On Westside, all's we could do is dream about water. This is fully city over here.
One massive residential, retail, and industrial sprawl, most abandoned, and ripe for the next generation to re-inhabit.
We could list a million businesses that have gone from our salad days. (Sears, Wards, Sanders, Holley Carb., Micromatic Hone, Ex-cello, DeSotos, GM, all the movies, Nash-Kelvinator, CF Smiths, Wrigleys, Federal's, Crowley-Milners, Robert Hall, Cunninghams, Kresges, Darby's, you name it.

Eiredearie -
The girls came over from Goldberg in nineteen fifty seven. Yes, Mr. Schimelfening had the engine class. I've heard he passed away several years ago. His son was a couple years behind me. Mr. Meier the head of the English Dept. was our sponsor. I would never have graduated if not for him.
I was in Julie's every day. I can still hear Little Richard coming from the jukebox!
I too had friends from all over town.

Caldogven - Yes Mr. Schimelfening did pass away, I think in 2001 or 2002. I remember his obit in the paper. Sometime in the late 70's I attended a friend's wedding reception and come to find out he was one of her uncles. He remembered me and we sat together and had a great time reminiscing about school life. He was such a great guy.
Mr. Meier must have left before I got there. I don't remember him at all.
As for Julie's, whenever I think about that place I hear Fat's Domino coming from the jukebox. "I Left My Thrill On Blueberry Hill" and "Hooka Tooka". Geesh! Those were some great times, eh? |

7&K: Foot of Alter and foot of Lakewood were pretty much the same...Alter was the wooded park...Lakewood was the parking lot...which is why ES61 is so focused on Lakewood. It depended on the season...summer was Alter with a blanket in the trees...winter was Lakewood in the backseat with the heater going...or so I've heard...the legend on the Eastside is that ES61 and SH used a whole tank of gas parked there one winter weekend. |

7/K - foot of Alter meant that you had to also drive over the Ashland bump at a high speed.....there was some clown in a white ford convert who hit the Ashland bump doing about 60 + just destroyed his whole vehicle....i wonder what ever happened to him...but the legend lives on....also in the winter the south of Jefferson neighborhoods had cement alleys - No known cement alleys on the westside....which meant that same ford guy would cruise the neighborhood after a big snow fall and would look for people out in the alley and he would speed down the alley at again a high rate of speed and the snow would spray out both sides behind the vehicle up to about the 5 foot level and many an unsuspecting person in the alley was totally showered with wet snow......in the summer getting into the GP Park because it had lighted tennis courts was another eastside challenge since one had to prove one was a resident of GP....but it was done on many occasion in the late 50' early 60's which can to added to the legends of the Eastside.....Gas got as low as 18.9 sometimes on 8 mile......but a true eastsider was always looking for the WHITE 56 Ford Crown Victoria convert....driven buy the legendary GB with his princeton hair cut .......even the King of the westside Jjaba would have been impressed by the antics of GB....in fact I think Jjaba and GB both flunked out of WMU.....I have always wondered why Jjaba never went to the uOFm.....and the westsider like Jjaba opted out and should have gone to Central HS but decided that CASS TECH which was dominated by eastsiders was his school.....but then he hung out with GB (eastsider) in Kalamazoo....after graduation from CASS....remember Jjaba that Cass also played sports as an eastside team....
GB - invite Jjaba to the motown reunion tour of the neighborhood (EASTSIDE) on 7/31/08......we will pick him up on La Salle blvd - Euclid --Clairmont - Collingwood - just name the street Jjaba......see ya in July!••• |

Hamtramck isn't a suburb. It seems pretty urban to me, anyway. I compare it to Brooklyn, which is considered a borough, not a suburb. Eastside is the best side. Neither side is perfect, but I prefer the Eastside. There's the lake, Jefferson/Lakeshore to avoid 94, and Buscemi's just to name a few. Gotta admit though, I'm dating a Westsider. We live on the Eastside, of course. |

Eastsdie61 and M=Go=Blue sure are having fun.
For starters, jjaba attended Noble, Tappan, then Cass Tech. Lived near Wyoming, not Linwood, but he knows Linwood and Dexter, La Salle Blvd, 12th Street like the back of him hand. His home HS district is Mackenzie HS, school of Jerome Bettis.
jjaba had his Bar Mitzvah on Linwood Ave. near Oakman Blvd. but not high school.
jjaba welcomes Melody to The Forum. Be careful.
He chose WMU. It just popped up on the radar as the happening place for this happening Westsider.
Goblue and other Broncos know why.
To assert that Cass Tech. is now, or was then, an Eastside school is pure Eastside rubbish.
There are students who trundle down to Cass Tech. from Telegraph Rd., from Lahser Rd., from W. Eight Mile Rd., from W. Seven Mile and Livernois, etc. neighborhoods. They live in DelRay, Warrendale, Sherwood Forest, Palmer Woods, Brightmoor.
jjaba, Westsider. |

Passionate is what you call it.
jjaba looks up and sees a sea of Eastsiders with fishing poles at the Ft. of Alter Rd. Nothing says Eastside like Denby, a six pack of Pfeiffers or Strohs, and a fishing pole.

What a great discussion! I'm in downtown now, as I have been off and on my entire adult life. However, I was raised in the Joy Road/Grand River area. My Mom still lives in the family house she and my Dad purchased in 1959. Does anyone remember the smell of burning leaves during our beautiful Indian summers? How about the great trick or treating we experienced before the crazies began? I remember so many Christmas lights on the houses that the reflection on the snow was must magical. My five siblings and I really lived the life of the kids in the movie, The Christmas Story. Our story for real! Really glad I 'stumbled' onto this forum. |

Funny, Goblue, this Eastside/Westside conversation. Growing up we were not allowed east of Woodward but oddly, almost every guy I dated was from the eastside. Finally, at 30 years old, I fell in love with a guy on East Outer Drive and Southhampton. Opened up an entirely new world to me. Later, my husband and I moved to the Kelly 7 Mile area. Few family and friends would visit; they said they had to pack a lunch to come that far! Anyway, as all of you know, Detroit is full of beautiful neighborhoods throughout. |

For the record and sorry Jjaba...
Belle Isle is on the East side.
I know you get a little edgy because the East Side has the Ren Cen, Comerica Park, Compuware, DMC, Faygo, Better Made, Gratiot (pronounce it yourself), most of Riverwalk, Dequindre Cut, Lake St Clair, Grosse Pointe, Indian Village, etc... but you have whatever it is you have over there. |

Growing up on the East Side, in neighborhoods that hardly exist now, I never thought much of East Side/West Side. My world was within walking distance or a short drive. A different land was simply a short walk to Hamtramck. Movies … walk over to the Eastown theater. Stores were readily available in the neighborhoods and along Van Dyke to Harper. A car could mean cruising at the A&W and Woods Drive-Ins on Connor near Gratiot. Submarine races … well that meant any private location that could be found or going to the beach (Belle Isle). Special trips to Hudsons or one of the major surrounding stores or theaters meant going “downtown”. They were neither East nor West side. Edgewater Park seemed so far away, that it was like going to another city. And Briggs/Tiger stadium, well that was a special place, not a location.
It wasn’t until I went to high school (Cass Tech – Class of 67) that I started to think of the West Side . Not only because of the 2 buses though West Side areas needed for traveling to and from school, but by the West Siders that I met. They did seem different, although I can’t explain why, other than I remember that more of them were Soc/Frat/Hippy types than I was used to from my East Side Greaser world. They introduced me to such places as Plum Street and the Grande Ballroom. Not to mention the more open-minded attitudes and mini skirts of the girls, which I didn't mind.
Jjaba ... Were you a Beat Generation, Jack Kerouac reading, beatnik type? Some of your interesting posts suggest it. Just wondering. |

jjaba has always worked, not a beatnik.
He fought hard for civil rights for all Detroiters, and in the 1960s, that was hard work.
All of Detroit benefitted, including Eastsiders with fishing poles and beer bellys.

I have an appreciation for the drift down historical lane, but the direction has been skewed a bit.
Does anyone care to RETURN to the reasons why Westsiders act as if they are sooo superior to Eastsiders.
I know, I know, long time posters should be able to do whatever they want to, but please do it on another thread.

ES61 ... Ms Smith doesn't ring any bells, but my memory of teachers are vague. Ed Varney, as I recall, was a counselor for the Chem-Bio curriculum.
Jjaba ... Hats off to you, fellow "Technician".
Any "superiority" that I felt usually came from some Westsiders who seemed to be better off financially. |

LOL at Meaghansdad... sorry to say but starting a thread is no guarantee it's going to stay the way you want it to. Threads are organic... they evolve and have a life of their own.
I guess most east/west side folks don't buy into the one side is more superior than the other angle, except in a whimsical way. |
