ROSELAND Part 2 St. Salomea Area

January 2006 drive-by 118th & Prairie to 120th and back Indiana Ave to 118th. Many houses on Prairie are missing. Ours was NOT the first house on the block before.

What was Netko's?

@L1T3BR1T3 It was a little Mom and Pop grocery store.

Thanks for showing a part of the south side that City Hall has pretty much forgotten about. Hell, except for Hyde Park, City Hall has pretty much forgotten about the South Side altogether.

But City hall never forgets to raise taxes... on everything.

@walterj513 You mean a synagogue?

What's the song called?

[L1T3BR1T3]

@walterj513 Yeah, sadly there aren't too many of those around...

Just want to thank you, your camera brings back a gone time for a moment. I lived on Brayton street, around 125th and State, if you get that way I hope you have your camera. Can't ever get there myself again. Never wanted to leave, had no choice, I didn't make the rules! Visited 20 years ago it to me had just been a place my memories didn't recognize.

I'm kinda busy with other things.

YOU should grab a camera and tape those mansions.  Uploading to YouTube is easy, it'll even take cell phone cameras.

U should film these parts, it still looks nice. when u where film heading east on 115th, where u noticed the missing building is now a parking lot for the train station. If u had turned left(north) on King Dr. to 113th by the park r those mansions
