I wish I could dive into this video like a time machine and run straight home to my house in east Glen Park and see all my family again when they were alive and stay there with them forever.
This is an awesome video. I’m from Gary and I recall going to the village with my grandparents during the late 80’s. Even then, it was so much better than what it is now. I eventually moved to Merrillville, then on to Fort Wayne. I can’t believe how run down Gary has become. If only I had the money; I’d buy as much real estate as I could, starting with downtown and push out the corruption and revitalize the city inside out.
I grew up in Merrillville in the early/mid 2000s and it looks like the economic blight is slowly dying. Gary is mostly just abandoned now. It's not as bad as people say (like violence wise) but yeah. The reputation it has makes it hard to attract commerce and people. The local government hasn't done shit and can't seem to do anything productive with funding and public projects. They recently opened up a Hard Rock Casino on Burr, right off 94 but it's gonna take a lot more than that to get Gary off its feet. A small step forward, but still a long way to go.
I lived directly across the street.The 36th amd Grant St enterance to the Village.the house and the one next door were moved when purchased by a bank. Santa would arrive via helicopter. So many good childhood memories.
Tim Blacker - did you know of Glenn Park Grocery?? ( 36thh and Delaware)?! My Grandfather owned it, and ran it with my Buscia, my Dad and his siblings..
It sure was fun living in Gary back then. Broadway was busy, Jackson Park was beautiful and the YMCA served delicious food on Sundays after church. Good memories!
Back when I grew up, Gary was a striving, beautiful city. My mother worked for Gary Redevelopment, and also the Civic Center. I hate how it has become.
The stealmill was the saving grace of Gary Indiana, a blue collar middle class town. I do so weep at it's nearly desolate and mere existence today, mere shadow of what was imaginable and what she could have become for of it's Citizen's and not merely a few.
This was what both of my grandfather's returned home to after WWII, and shortly afterwards my uncle's and father would have headed to North Korea and subsequently Vietnam. And as for myself, I am a veteran of Desert Storm 1990-94.
Ironic, is it not? Ironic how Gary, Indiana is now about as functional as North Korea. Think about it, the DPKR has the Kim Dynasty and Gary, Indiana has The Social Welfare/ Big Government Industrial Complex. It's pretty sad when everything you see about these Post Traumatic Cities is about the past.
Yes, all use to be. Use to shop at Village, and in older days worked Security for the shopping center. That was 90's. Tittles had a big store behind shopping center with domed roof.
Born and raised in Gary, spent a big part of my childhood in the village shopping center, my second job was at jc penny’s, dad worked at wards as a second job, those hotdogs were amazing, rexall drugs and there lunch counter with real cherry cokes, the good old days, left gary in 1978, and never looked back, mom and dad never left, dad retired after 35 yrs at u.s. steel, couldn’t get them to move to valpo!😢
I was there when they opened. My mother had a paint and walper and decorating store. Every store opened on the same day and every store opened noon to 9Pm M-F. 9am-6pm Sat and every store was CLOSED on Sunday
Those were the days! I grew up a couple blocks away and remember when it was built and spent many hours just hanging out there as a youngster. Hard to believe but in addition to Title's and Kroger, there was an A &P Grocery a block north on Grant. 3 grocery stores...Thanks for the flashback to a better time. D.A.
Look at all the people, dressed so beautifully & happy. I can't imagine the people who grew up here & have these memories, and what it is today....is this where the Jackson kids performed?
I remember picking up my grandmother from work at The Village. She used to sew draperies for J.C. Penney in a huge workroom behind the complex's southwest juncture. My brother and I would get those great hot dogs from the stand, then go to Kresge for malts. This was around 1970-the last days, so to speak.
+Reginald Marshall: That's sad news about The Village, my friend. You wouldn't believe how vital, vibrant, busy, and bustling that place used to be. Long before Southlake Mall was even dreamed of, The Village was the place to shop, hang out, and be seen. Good times will come again for Gary. Until then, stay safe.
+Reginald Marshall: There's wisdom in your perspective. Investment capital will again find its way to Gary. It's lakefront property, for Christsake! If I had piles of money, I'd be buying corner lots on either Broadway or Grant St. anywhere north of 80/94.
Nice video it reminds me of how beautiful Gary use to be. I was raised in Black Oak on the Westside and moved 30 minutes South in the late 90s. My cousin lives in Gary off Grant St in brand new apartments. I'd love to see them bulldoze the abandoned buildings and restore Gary. It's one of a kind , but a sad and violent city.
iNDiaNa BuDsMoKa I’m a real estate investor in north west Indiana and I’m buying properties in gary weekly and flipping them one at a time to bring back the city
@@LuisPerez-xf2ec Good man, much respect to you. Gary is one of the most historic cities in Indiana. It has so much potential and I'm happy ppl like you see that!
@@LuisPerez-xf2ec I'm currently a resident of Gary and I would love to bring my city out of the dark. I was just an infant maybe (born in 89) when things were going good here but now there's more abandoned buildings than places that provide employment.... how can we connect
We lived right around the corner, I spent most of my allowance at Mr Grillo's toy store and later worked in the paint department in the Montgomery Wards.
Thanks for uploading this video! I am not from the region, but these steel belt cities are fascinating. It’s sad to think about how people worked and were able to provide for their families and community was a way of life.
Hey Buddy great video bring back the memories. I remember they had a little hot dog stand there out front now it's inside I think that's the only original thing that's still there, just a lot of empty space now. years ago when it was new the place was packed I can remember it was fields all over there we used to go down 35th to the West and there used to be a farm where you could pick your vegetables and stuff used to go back there with some of the neighbors back when Gary was a nice place now I don't know what's left of it looks like Beirut Lebanon anymore, like a war zone what's left of it.
@@Lava_Lamp_Dread Indiana is cheap and boring. Most ppl come to downtown Chicago because of the food and high end stores that cease to exist in NorthWest Indiana.
My mom said Gary had everything... thats what makes it that much more amazing that the founders totally abandon it because blacks started moving there from the south
I used to live right across the street in the late sixties, moved in 70. Little house right on Grant St, next to McAnary Ford. Some good times hanging out at the Village as a kid.
Outside the building the corner of Wards had one of those twisted mirrors that would distort everything. As little kids we had a lot of fun looking at it. I remember a different goldblatts Thay we're two buildings with en enclosed walkway on the second floor. The walkway was not level. You had to walk up hill through the walkway then down the other side
This was before the Steel Industry left. Before they elected their first black major. Before white flight. In fact, whites were the majority back in the 60's.
I grew up near there in the 79s-80s. By that time, steel mill jobs were drying up, & white flight had already happened in Gary, for the most part, as the work dried up. Many Black Americans from the south moved up to northwest Indiana hoping for better prospects, & less harassment. Neither happened, as overt racism, & redlining was prevalent, as were sundowner towns. I lived in a town built for steel mill workers- white steel mill workers. There were no Black people in the town I grew up in. With insufficient tax dollars to maintain the city, as more & more residents left for a chance of better opportunities , Gary fell into decline. And it became a very dangerous place in many parts, for quite a few years. It was named the murder capital of the country in the 80s I believe. Now yo see it as a near ghost town is weird
i was born in Gary(many yrs ago) in ST Marys Hospital)when it was own and run by the Catholic Church. check what it likes now!!!We moved shortly after to Chicago and moved as a teenager to Southern California,and still there.We have our problems like very place in this country! But its the best place not only in this country but the whole world when you look at not only the weather,employment,homes etc,etc!!! If you have a better place let me know? Thanks
Rest in pieces Gary last cool thing there was Roy Boys Badlands smh. Why the destruction why didn't they pick up where it was left off still had the mills no excuse to ruin a awesome place that once was. Could of been a great place if it was taken care of with love and inspiration.
Because the leadership had no plan moving Gary into the technology age. They were concentrated on “taking” the city out of spite. Many city leaders went to jail for stealing federal funds meant to make our communities better economically and then there was White flight that took major department stores and businesses south to further develop Merrillville. This is the result and sadly, here we are. *i was born in 1961 here and still reside in Gary, so my statement is from experience.
bauchelle davis it was I remember as a child Broadway was good place to walk the the streets that was in early 80s then drugs and violence grew stronger in the early early 90 's
Gary is a classic case of political, geographic and functional fragmentation. eroding tax bases that strained city services and their budgets. It's too bad. My parents grew up there and I spent part of my youth there as well.
Another poster, said it was around 1955-56 when this shopping center open. Not sure the year it was enclosed as a mall, but this shopping center is BARELY still open today. Forgot how many other stores are left in the inside mall portion, except for Rainbow and a hot dog stand. I thought Dollar Tree also had a store there, with outside only access?
People in the 50s really had it all. And they seem to never care about any other generation moving forward. The beginnings of the end of strong family. They retired way too early. They could have worked for their future generations. The generations today are in a world of hurt. Upsets me how the one generation that had it all is the generation that'll be the first to say how entitled and spoiled we are today. Bullocks
Are you mad? Do you have any idea how back breaking the jobs were back then no health and safety lifting heavy items, working in a steel factory is easy? And to top it off they were just coming off the back of ww2 with many people dead from it. Is that what you are describing as easy? This generation is lazy and has it too easy, everything is accessible, people have too much time on their hands now that's why cities are falling to dust.
I wish I could dive into this video like a time machine and run straight home to my house in east Glen Park and see all my family again when they were alive and stay there with them forever.
Aahhww, I wish you could, too.
Im sorry.
Me too. Hugs Brother.
Buddy i wish you the best that made me feel alot
I share the family feelings with this one too. Grew up in Hobart. Wast there an airport near the Village in the early 60s?
Those were the days. I was born in Gary at Gary Methodist. Lived there until ‘76. Great memories. I am a proud Hoosier.

I'm from Gary and I remember how it was when it was open it was the place to be
when alot of gary residents moved to Indy , they took most of the crime with.
I lived directly across the street.The 36th amd Grant St enterance to the Village.the house and the one next door were moved when purchased by a bank.
Santa would arrive via helicopter.
So many good childhood memories.
Tim Blacker - did you know of Glenn Park Grocery?? ( 36thh and Delaware)?! My Grandfather owned it, and ran it with my Buscia, my Dad and his siblings..
Excuse my misspelling of your name.. Mr. Blaker
From the 1920s - 1960s Gary was an amazing place to live
Unfortunately most ppl that witnessed that are either deceased or up in age. We’re talking almost 100 years ago 😮
It sure was fun living in Gary back then. Broadway was busy, Jackson Park was beautiful and the YMCA served delicious food on Sundays after church. Good memories!
Wowee! I remember as a little girl. Gary was very cool and pretty. Beautiful homes and shopping centers. Thanks for the nostalgic post!
Angelica Rox 😈 not anymore not anymore.
Back when I grew up, Gary was a striving, beautiful city. My mother worked for Gary Redevelopment, and also the Civic Center. I hate how it has become.
Lived at 4639 Grant St from 49 - 57. Dad pastored what was Grace Baptist Church at Ridge & Cleveland. Great place to grow up in the 50s!
Sure was.
Riss sales was right across Grant , another great store.
I remember Riss sales too
The stealmill was the saving grace of Gary Indiana, a blue collar middle class town. I do so weep at it's nearly desolate and mere existence today, mere shadow of what was imaginable and what she could have become for of it's Citizen's and not merely a few.

The Village is a empty building of a few stores but I miss those days of going to JCPenneys, Hallmark, Kresges and even Goldblatts

Me too. My Grandparents owned Glen Park Grocery on 36th and Delaware..Such precious memories..
Yes, all use to be. Use to shop at Village, and in older days worked Security for the shopping center. That was 90's. Tittles had a big store behind shopping center with domed roof.
I was born in 1956 , I remember the Village. Fantastic piece you chose for the music .
What is the tune?.I would love to know!.
Anybody recall a shoe store where the Children's department was on a "raised platform"??.
#TBT..😁
The store that had the sliding board in the back?

my how times have changed, our elders passed down a thriving city to a generation that destroyed it
Yesterday May 25th, 2019, I drove my 2018 made Dodge Journey Crossroad on the Broadway. No traffic, no pollution, no people. YAYYYYY LOL
Chicagoans use to ride the train to Gary to shop and walk Boadway..such a shame..corruption not only in Gary, almost any large metropolitan area..
Now it's the other way around. I catch the train in Hammond and do my weekend shopping in Illinois

I remember buying a Gap Band album here in 1982.
About a minute into it, it reminded me of watching old episodes of Mr. Rogers lol..if you watched it growing up, you'd know what i mean

Would love to see those!

The best part were the hot dogs and orange drink.

Damn Glen Park didn't even exist right across the street back then. 😲
This was before the Steel Industry left. Before they elected their first black major. Before white flight. In fact, whites were the majority back in the 60's.
I guess I got the short end of the Gary stick being born in 1985 huh smh
Awe. Yeah you kind of missed it. Gary was a beautiful town till the mid 60's.
What great music...sounds like a Horace Silver arranged for big band.....
Does anybody know when it was filmed?
It opened in 55...?
Going shopping center when U.S. Steel was thriving there. Sad to see it's demise years later.
We used to walk 6 blocks to Ridge Road & Broadway, load up on candy at Dickerson's & take the bus to The Palace. Even at night. No worries - in 1962.
I love this!!!
Damn...I was there last month to get a Polish!
I'm craving a polish right now. Haven't had any in 2 years. Going next month and can't wait!
Man I loved them village polishes 🤤🤤🤤 Haven't had none like those in years 😢

Who's the music by? It's amazing.
Thanks
dunno the place, tho very interesting, thnx 4 sharing👍
Thank you!
Very sad it's like watching person dying .What year did the shops open.
I think 1955 or 56
What year did it open? I remember it. I lived in Gary from 1957 (my birth) until 1965.
wow are fascinated by Gary I was a fan M.J was born in Gary but now this city is largely abandoned is sorry. sorry I'm from Romania
What year is this? 1956?
Gary used to be so beautiful
bauchelle davis it was I remember as a child Broadway was good place to walk the the streets that was in early 80s then drugs and violence grew stronger in the early early 90 's
This is great. Walter do you still live in Gary?
56!? Is that what year this was?
Timeless video
Gary is a classic case of political, geographic and functional fragmentation. eroding tax bases that strained city services and their budgets. It's too bad. My parents grew up there and I spent part of my youth there as well.
100× Better than 2020
Nice music. Who is this?
Royalty free music from the internet.
Thanks. It did not give any credit to who might they be?
kuma552 sorry, it was something I grabbed at random, don't remember where.
ah. no worries, mate. Nice tune and video. I fondly remember looking at a house to purchase on Morningside street.
Mind blown
And now it turned into spirit Halloween
amazing
What is that lady smuggling in her shirt @ 1:35 ? 🧐
a red balloon.
Down the street from family home 12 and 20 in Miller.
Did any of you online know the Jacksons/Jackson 5 while you were growing up in Gary??..I mean, knew them personally.
My dad's family did! Lived by them and went to school with them
Keep telling me America has "progressed" since then.
A big American dream that turned to nothing.
I was always a Woodmar mall man myself.
Montgomery Wards took the space that had been Kresge’s or Penneys at some point...probably in the early 70’s
Nope. Wards, Kresges and Penneys have always been in the same location since the beginning.
Back before America turned into a third world country.
Year of opening? Year of closing?
Still has some stores open.
Another poster, said it was around 1955-56 when this shopping center open. Not sure the year it was enclosed as a mall, but this shopping center is BARELY still open today. Forgot how many other stores are left in the inside mall portion, except for Rainbow and a hot dog stand. I thought Dollar Tree also had a store there, with outside only access?
Hard to believe people got all dressed up to go shopping back then. Thought they were all dressed up to go to church on Sunday.
so they ruined crops for shopping
The greatest entertainer of all time was born in 1950s, Michae Jackson.
Back when three sisters was only one sister. ;)
People in the 50s really had it all. And they seem to never care about any other generation moving forward.
The beginnings of the end of strong family.
They retired way too early. They could have worked for their future generations.
The generations today are in a world of hurt. Upsets me how the one generation that had it all is the generation that'll be the first to say how entitled and spoiled we are today.
Bullocks
Are you mad? Do you have any idea how back breaking the jobs were back then no health and safety lifting heavy items, working in a steel factory is easy? And to top it off they were just coming off the back of ww2 with many people dead from it. Is that what you are describing as easy? This generation is lazy and has it too easy, everything is accessible, people have too much time on their hands now that's why cities are falling to dust.
People who built this are all gone. Gary died when they were run out by crime and violence; same as everywhere in USA 🇺🇸 today .
