I have never followed a true follower of Michael Jackson, now Flipo thousand dances and staging but I never bought his album and listened to him "back in the days" in the early nineties when there was always some imitated him in school or neighborhood. However, when I heard that was where I came because quickie Internet to search the house. At Jackson Avenue and 23rd, easy to remember, the address relates to the two world famous Michael Jackson and Jordan.
Street them.
traffic sign by the house of the king of pop.
was the first thing I said to the English who came to fetch me. They said they had not gone, not knowing where he was and that Gary is very dangerous.
Gary is an industrial city, black and in a state of total abandonment. Is in the middle of what is called the "Steel Yard", ie, where they meet all U.S. steel. Factories are mammoth, here are the "U.S. Steel Works", the "Arcelor-Mittal, the" Great Lakes Steel Industry. " Gary was artificially formed to accommodate all the workers of this industry (right now there is a poster celebrating the centennial of the city) and now many factories are closing. The result is the worst unemployment data and hazard of the United States with Washington DC and Detroit. For here the bad reputation precedes it, ask whom you ask.
One of the many abandoned local along Broadway Avenue, the main street of Gary, Indiana.
The view I have on a daily basis by Gary from the bridge which was not a ghetto, and when one day I have eaten there and I went to a hardware store I have not seen any gun or have called me "whitey" but with all the talk of the city as I did that I would be without seeing the house of Michael Jackson.
Gary A house like so many others.
So today when leaving a fellow work mates said that if we were to see the house of Michael Jackson I thought it's awesome. It is about ten minutes of work. When I speak of a degraded neighborhood comes to my mind the Cañada Real or crammed huge blocks of 50 and 60. Gary is a city of small cottages, small houses and bad materials, but with its garden and good car at the door. It is also true that many are abandoned or burned, not seeing anyone on the streets, but that's typical out here in big cities, everyone goes by car-and to be in line with the roll since peliculero Young blacks look bad when you spend with the car.
Ahi but I am like a youngster (his hair took him so by the Hull, friends), just where the little Michael came to rehearse the dance steps, if not the father but it was warm.
Upon arrival we saw a house full of products for sale changing color artist. We have set out to take pictures and the black billet had told us "No pictures here !!!", we made shit up, we laughed and commented that the house of Michael's good but that was not of front. At home there is nothing special, and have removed the flowers and photos. Is the mailbox and signs by the house full of signatures. The colleague has been telling me things all the action was formed there when he died, people stealing the mailbox and street lamps in the house, he lives a little further away but has rented the house next door to do business, which recently was Spike Lee to film a documentary that he was going to be in the film of Michael Jackson .
Here is the guy who marketed with the pull of the artist, told me to either get a picture with him, which appeared in the movie of Michael Jackson and was going to be famous.
