2724 WEST CRYSTAL: MY CHILDHOOD









I was born in Humboldt Park and lived in the top floor of a three-flat. I think my novella "Lover Doll" in Ellen Datlow's anthology LITTLE DEATHS has the most description of the time frame circa 1959.  I went back a few weeks ago and took photos, ignoring the hipster hangouts as much as possible. One shot here is of the Humboldt Park lagoon. Enjoy.
