I grow up in Montopolis in the early 60s and 70s and now at 65yrs I'm retired and still live in the Montopolis area and have seen all my friends and neighbors get gernified out of our neighborhood which is so sad because we made this area. RIP Shorty from LA Familia Rodriguez y Veloz. 🙏
My family church ( the holy temple) was on Kemp st. so every weekend we was in the area. Glad to see this because learning about my city's history is important to me, especially with gentrification going on everything is changing smh.
My grandparents Calderon started there Across the street from the drive in out door movie . We used to watch movies from the house , which was two streets from Riverside. My grandparents Calderon used to give Mass at their house.

Didn’t live in the 41 area but grew up in montopolis. My grandma Owned a hair Salon called Irene hair salon down the street from the rec center. Man I miss the old days.. some good ol Alonsos too man.
50 years ago our grandparents took pride in our neighborhood and kept up their little homes. Being poor or lower middle class was no excuse to be lazy or dirty.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere east of IH35. Montopolis was a great place to live 50 years ago.
Why?
@@johnnyp7707 For one thing, the poorer area is east of I35 and the second thing is that Texas students were living all along Riverside 50 years ago.
