I lived on Napier street,I do not recall the name of the housing park.Yes,women were barefoot and pregnant back then.Silas B Hayes Hospital,on giggling rd.I would love to see some videos of Fort Ord,in the 80s.
There were no parks on Fort Ord that I can recall in 1984 to 1985 and 1987 to 1988. I lived in Frederick Housing area in 1987 to 1988. Frederick Housing was close to the AAFES Gas Station on the Marina Gate. Frederick and Abrams Housing was close to the Gas Station. I lived on San Pablo Court. I am interested in the Exchange, Commissary and theater area. There was a stadium. What happen to the air field and the other areas I mentioned. Thanks for your video.
When I mentioned parks I was referring to the housing areas. They were called parks. The housing you were in was not the main gas station. You were near one of a few small exchanges. Basically a convenience store. Schoonover was another housing park. There was a large field there and tennis courts. They are both still there. Fritzsche airfield was turned over to the city of Marina. It's now a civilian airport with a small business park. I believe the police academy still uses part of the facility for defensive driver training. There is also veterans facility there and a parachute school. The main exchange, commissary are going to close soon. The credit union is still there but with the exchange closing they may leave too. I'm not sure about the main gas station. The theater near the exchange is used by a charity I think.
Oh by the way you weren't near the main gate either. That housing was by the Imjin gate. You could go out that gate to cross Reservation Rd to get to the airfield, go left to Marina, or right to Salinas.
actually the community center, the library, and one of the churches was right off of Marshall Park. Fitch Park was just down the street and Fitch school was located at Coe Ave and North-South Rd. Fitch has now been changed to Seaside Middle School i believe. They have altered Coe Ave and widen North- South Rd. They also changed the name to Gen Jim Moore.
Correct if I'm wrong but I believe fort ord built the new during the 80s because there' was some kind of incident where a young dependent died because the family was living in a car or something odd because Ord didn't have enough family housing for all. It was a big thing and made national news.
I lived at 218 Remagen Rd., from 81-83 and there was a park at the top of the road where it met Ardennes Cir., and there was another park on Tunisia, I believe. I know that area has been built up with newer houses now, but it seems the arks were taken out in that neighborhood at least. I'm only going by what I've seen on Google Earth.

I would like to kno if Gigling Rd still exists? Lived at 132 Gigling Rd 1970 -71. My daughter was born on base.
Yes it is. Most of the streets are still there. But many of the houses have been demolished and replaced. The new houses are really nice.
Do you like going to ready Court
I believe I did a video while driving down it.
