My dad grew up in Glendale. Born in 1940, his father wrote for the Sun as a criminal reporter (no byline) and his brother covered the NY baseball and football Giants from 1951-57, the Yankees through 65 and then the Pirates from 66-86.
I heard all about the Bushwicks as they were so close to Glendale. Dad saw them way more often than the Dodgers ( I was absolutely floored when he told me that he went to Ebbets field maybe 15-20x and spent way more time at the Polo Grounds - which makes sense because he tagged along with his brother while he was covering games). So, Dexter Park...site of Franklin K Lane High School today. What a wonderful little history. Thanks for posting... |
