Silverstien area

A lot of people are talking about Silverstiens in the six mile mt Elliot area.I used to live on Sherwood and Davison in the emerson projects in the late 40s/early 50s I am looking for anyone that lived in the projects at that time and photos of the projects would be great,I am 81 years old maybe your parents or grand parents might have been from my time the projects was just put up during world war 2 and taken down about 1954.they went from 6 mile all the way to Nevada. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTp5PELZOVo yhis is a video of Marcus Hamburger a lot of people are talking about as far as I know it is still open but you will have to call for the hours because of the area

I remember going to Silverstein’s army surplus with my dad in the 50’s when I was a child; he served in the 100^th Infantry Division in Germany during the war. I found an aerial photo of the area where you lived and I marked up the streets that I could identify but Sherwood Road has moved over the years. Do the images in the photo look familiar?Attachment 32443
