Yep I grew up right next to Lakeside Mall back when Hall road was two lanes. Now it's the "Golden Corridor"  :lol: I won't go near that area anymore unless i really have to. Way too congested for me anymore. 

 

I'll be out near the Proving grounds in a few weeks for Thanksgiving...Chase Farms

We use to go to the old A&W on Thursday nights for the weekly car cruise. Was EASILY 800 cars there every night.  I can't even imagine what that would be like now. Yea I don't venture so of Hall Rd much anymore other than for work.

He would have to go S of 8 mile 

My grandma used to live off 75 just south of 8 mile. It was just starting to turn bad when I was a kid. That was a long time ago.

My grandparents lived at Stevens and the service drive. Over by the Hazel Park Rec center.  Drove by there not to long ago and it may as well have been called Detroit now :flush:

I remember going to Lakeside Mall back in the early 80’s and it did seem like it was out in the sticks.

It's growing even more.  All up and down Mound and Campground is getting built up. I've been out here almost 5 years and it's grown a lot since I've been here.  All along Mound along Greystone is build built up. Homes starting in the $750K range and up. 

 

Yep.  There's all kinds of vacant land there. Will be even more if they demolish Romeo Engine :flush:

at least it sounds like the area wasn't totally dependent on the manufacturing plant which is good.
