    Born and raised in Stockton, now I live in San Diego. Every single time I go visit my family the city looks worse and worse.

    Born and raised there. Born in 1962. We lived on Weber between D & E. Stockton had it's glory days. You have no idea. Jobs everywhere. Everybody was working. No homeless. Cheap gas, cheap groceries. People were so nice and respectful to each other. Newberry's, Kress, Mode-O-Day, Lerner's, Rosenthal's and JC Penny's were big sellers downtown. Down at the Mall, was Macy's and Weinstocks Department store. Then there was Mac Disco department store on Filbert and Weber. It was the original Walmart. We lived across the street from Teichert Construction Company on Weber with Union Ice Company to the left of us ( or west side). Before Union Ice was built ( that building is still there) it was a big empty field and right against our driveway edge on that property - was a 100 year old wooden jail building! It was a left over from the old cowboy days in Stockton! I'm talking a hold-over from the time of horses, carriages, cowboy hats and saloons! It was a small jail. Locked with a chain and lock and no key anyone could find. It remained there for years before they came and got it to build the Union Ice Company. It had the two windows with iron bars across. An all wood structure, wooden floor and wooden bench on the inside. The jailed person slept on the floor. We would peer into that thing all hours of the day and night hoping to see the ghost of a long gone jailed cowboy. 🙂 . Down the street from us towards the east was the KWG Radio Station where they played what was known at that time as "elevator music". The big field behind that building was one of 6 or 7 different playgrounds for us. In the winter the grass was everywhere and as tall as us 7, 8 and 10 year olds. We had so much fun in that field! It just so happens that along the edge of that big wonderful playground, there were about 4 different fruit trees that were there to give us seasonal fruit. We had organic plums, cherries, apricots, peaches. There were also grape vines everywhere. Red grapes and white ones. In addition, almond and walnut trees all over our block. We had almond and walnut trees at home also. In the alley right behind us was the tallest Tamarind tree you ever saw. We had our challenges when we were kids - but in retrospect, we had the best environment and childhood a bunch of kids could ever ask for. I could go on and on. 🙂. Those were the quintessential days of wine and roses.

    Downtown stockton after 6pm in the summertime. Still light out. Streets eerily quite except for many mostly young men, all races but most poor and lost looking. Many just standing doing nothing, but staring at the horizon forlornly. Quite a spooky experience that left a real impression on me...

  • @TJMalana

    There’s a historical red brick building called the Medici dental in downtown Stockton. It’s so fascinating looking at it. 😢

    long yellow bldg is the stockton hotel. in 19th c., paddle wheel boats came in from sf and docked there. lived in stockton as a teenager 1962-68. lived near uop, went to stagg. very different town then. really felt the '60s vibe even that far from sf. we had a little boat and went water skiing out in the delta.

    I love Stockton! My grandparents lived there for 70+ years, my mom and uncle graduated high school there and my parents got married there! Stockton is in my heart forever!

    While Stockton has definitely seen better days, it's a city of contrasts. The tour left out the beautiful College of Pacific s area, the incredible neighborhood surrounding it, a charming area the locals refer to as the 'Miracle Mile', etc. Some residential areas in particular have retained their original charm and still others are absolutely elegant.

    Lived north of Hammer Lane from 1972-82. Those were a LONG ten years. Whenever I took the bus downtown then, it was rather tawdry and beat-up looking. This video shows it in a much better light.

    Stockton has really changed over the years. Delivered meat products to a lot of stores. A-1 Market, Alpine, Food 4 Less and others. Loved Tony's Pizza. Georges Chinese.

    I’m from STOCKTON ever since MLK Blvd in the south side of Stockton was named CHARTERWAY . Moved out about 10 yrs ago. Except for Fam and some homies I don’t really miss the place oh also the best MEXICAN FOOD named Arroyos mex food. 👍

    I see Xochimilco café is still there. The only real reason to visit downtown if you ask me.
