Roseland - My Old Neighborhood!


The following pictures are of the area I grew up know as Roseland, which is a community on the far South Side of Chicago.
A couple of the pictures look just how I remember it as a kid growing up through the 1960's and 1970's.
But for the most part, the neighborhood has really changed.
I would like to thank Dave Scholing for taking these pictures, so that I may reminise about all the great times growing up
in Roseland.
I hope others from the area may do the same.
