Obscure neighorboods of the City
Google maps labels city's neigborhoods. We all know the cliche ones, Indian Village, EEV, Palmer Park, Delray, Brightmoor, etc. What about the less known and obscure ones?
Here's a partial list: [[with their possible major street intersection, just guessing)
The Eye [[McNichols and Telegraph)
Five Points [[Five Points, Telegraph, 7 Mile)
Barton-McFarland [[Chicago and Meyers)
Fishkorn [[Joy and Greenfield)
Greensbriar [[Goulburn and 8 Mile)
Grixdale [[NW of Jos Campau and Nevada)
Blackstone Park [[SE of 8 Mile and Schaefer)
Belmont [[Puritan and Greenfield)
Franklin Park [[Chicago and Evergreen)
Krainz Woods [[7 Mile and Mound)
I would love to know how they were named, their histories, if they have community associations, if anyone lives here, memories, etc. Do residents know about the name?
Was their ever a "naming convention" where city leaders assigned names for different neighborhoods?
I didn't grow up in the city, but I know the basic neighborhoods and know my way around the city well, but have always been interested in the city's diverse neighborhoods. Is their a definitive source for the city's hoods?
