They tore down Harding?? I lived around the corner from Harding and went to the old Junior High that was accross the street from it before IT was torn down! Why would they tear it down? I was back in about '98 and it was still there and in pretty good shape. Are there just no little kids in Hammond any more??
I just left a comment on another video about this - I noticed today when I watched it, during the tire change scene the olds plates said indiana, yet everyone was saying Ohio was location, so that clears it up -- filmed in cleveland, set in indiana. thanks - Mike
2902- I thought Jean Shepherd grew up in the area E or NE of Harrison Park, so his address would have been, say, 15 Webb or something like that... 2902 would be in Hessville maybe? Anyway, thanks for this!
nah, actually its 2907, i know because i used to live there and ive seen evidence of the shepherd's habitation in the attic(jean and randy wrote their names in chalk on the celing of the dormer sometime in the 30's and its still there)
Sorry....not to be a nuisance here......but I lived in Hammond
from 1958-1970..........graduated the same Hammond High School shepard went to, and also worked at Inland steel open hearth #3 where his film crews often filmed his TV shows for Public TV channel 11..........I'd just like to know what the street address for '2902' was.......I lived in North and South Hammond both.......what was the street, and adress, so I can drive by sometime?
northwest indiana at its finest lol ...
