Pretty much the opposite side of town: Prairie Street is on the west side, a little bit north of halfway between the River and 8 Mile Road; I grew up on the near east side, and quite a bit further south. If you drew a triangle with the points in Downtown, Hamtramck, and Belle Isle, we were about centered in that triangle. I was born in 1954, and my folks moved back into the house my mom grew up in when I was 3; Mom was the last to leave, selling the house when my grandmother died in 1994.
