Grew up on Three Mile Drive between Warren and Mack. Spent many a happy hour at the Alger Theatre, the Jefferson Branch Library, Sanders, Kresge's, and A&K Oriental, not to mention Cannon Rec Center and Balduck Park. In the 80s, Dad had a small sporting goods store on Warren and Yorkshire.

For a college class, I did a report on the East Warren Businessman's Association and the neighborhoods within its scope.

Also for DEAR [[Detroit East Area Residents), I contributed to a small booklet outlining the history of the neighborhood and its churches, schools, businesses, and more.

I hope that this "beauty treatment" is completed and that it helps to revitalize the area.
