I was raised in Louisville around Atwood, Wainwright, Lilly, Bradley & Eastern Parkway. The easiest landmark which is not there anymore was St. Joseph Infirmary. This neighborhood was also known as "RAG HILL" because so many of its residents were extremely poor. Also around this area was Swiss Park, where I looked to go as a kid. Even though I have moved to another place, I still drive around the old neighborhood just to bring back memories.

Dear Sherry and Listers, I live in Southern CA. When I go back, it is fun for me to drive around Eastern Pkwy also. I went to the Univ. of Louisville for a while (grad from Case in Cleveland). I also like to drive around the Highlands from Speed Ave to Longest, and Cherokee Park. But I never have any interest in going to the Cabbage Patch in Crescent Hill, where I had to live for a while during WWII.
