I was raised in Silver Hill grew up in Marlow heights Lived in the apartments across from Silver Hill ele my dad was the chief of Silver Hill fire department. Can't remember the name of the apartments but I caught myself on fire there. Babysitter Debbie Padgett rolled me up in carpet then had to call Silver hill fire department of course my dad came. I was one that wore a peters jacket 6 pairs of colorful sweat socks chuck taylors and silk tshirts. Jimmy Stewart bought me my first chucks when we broke up he took them back. Stanley Iverson (I think was his last name)went to Stoddert he was the man back then haha.The famous royal burgers, Iverson mall, great time growing up there.Then my first real love who to this day will always have a huge part of my heart Dave Bunch he drove a green toronto bowled at suitland bowling alley worked at Mr Steaks. He was the one that got away!! Great site |

An older neighbor a couple blocks down from my old childhood home place in District Heights just told me about a published memoir written about the 1950s-1960s teenage street gangs in District Heights. The book nostalgically covers the "Parkland Demons," the "Bachelors" and their evolution into the "Apollos." |

I lived in Suitland from 1959 to 1973. My brother and sister are 8 and 10 years older and went to Suitland Elementary, Suitland Jr and Suitland Sr. Jim played football at Suitland Sr and graduated in 1969. Linda graduated in 1967. I was in the first class to matriculate from Berkshire Elementary but by the early 70s, PG County had started the busing program and my folks decided to send me to a private school in Upper Marlboro, Queen Annes. Lots of my friends went to Mt Cavalry, LaReinne and McNamara. Also, Suitland Jr. My Mom worked at the census bureau in the Scudari building in Marlow Heights. I remember going to Hechts and Woodies and when Iverson Mall opened my friends and I became the first "mall rats." Boy do I remember Grits, Macs, Chucks and Peters jackets. My brother worked at the Red Barn and got caught spraypainting on Madam Tillies palm reading sign - he was spraypainting away all the fingers except the middle finger. My friends and I used to walk to the duck pin bowling alley on Penn ave and Silver Hill road, also the A&P. We like to play in the "gravel pits" behind our neighborhood and would walk to the new McDonalds on Silver Hill Road. I remember doing a paper and the Suitland Library on Silver Hill road and using a very early generation xerox machine to copy some research material. Dad worked downtown for the government. He is Italian American and used to shop at Fleishman's Village italian grocery - we especially lived the bread. I remember Nick's car wash where Mom would get her Dodge Dart washed and I would watch through the window as the car went through. Before Suitland, my parents and siblings lived in a duplex on Lyons street just a few blocks from Iverson Mall. My orthodondist was in DC on Penn Ave right next to a Mighty Mo's - is that the Mighty Mo's you refer to? Mom would always take me for ice cream after getting my braces tightened. My sister told me Overlook Drive in DC was a big makeout site - moved before I got the chance to use it. Ha! |

I spent some of my formative years here, and cherish the memories. I was there for the integration of Sandymount, had my first boyfriend and kiss, learned to swim, caught fireflies, and just generally had a great childhood in Marlow Heights. |

I thought it would go on forever. This is a great site and I always come back when I get a feeling for the days. Thanks Chuck |

My favorite teacher, of all times, was Mrs. Foster (6th grade). I just Googled her name and Hillcrest Heights and found this site - how neat. Brought back lots of memories. I can't remember my address - lived next door to the Sterrett family. I have to see if I can find any papers from waaay back then. I'll share them if I do. |

Wish I had found this site years ago. Remembered some names, grabbed my yearbook and started looking people up. It was a great place to be a kid. Went on google earth to look at my childhood home. They have filled in the huge culvert we would play in, guess its for the best. |

Hillcrest Hgts.Ozon Hill District Hghts,Forestville anyone climbed the big red&white water tower by the census bureau we did many times ,spent alot of good times at Parkway terracce apts.through the 70s while we got into a little trouble none of us were really bad guys all my best memories are growing up in Suitland in the 70s Ikeep up with just about all the guys I grew up with most of us went into the trades making a decent living having children and remembering through them how we were where does time go I hope someone reads this and maybe reminds them of a place or time that they had forgotten and say dam I remember that as I have done reading others stories thanks for the memories E.Hines |

My first job ever was at the Jr Hot Shoppes, before there was an Inverson Mall, right after they first opened. The line to the counter stretched around the parking lot and we out grossed the top 3 McDonalds in the Metro area. That was hustling. And I worked for $1.10/hr. What eventually became the Iverson Mall parking lot was an empty field were I would go riding my bike thru the bike trails and bramble that was everywhere back there. Also worked at the Hobby Shop next to the store where the full service Hot Shoppes was. One of my last jobs before I moved away to school was at the 14th Street Marriott downtown. Great experience. Family liked to bowl, so we patronized the Bowl America (?) a lot. Mom was a league secretary and I was able to bowl an entire sheet of games for 25 cents! I even got to work there and participated in tearing out the old machines on one side in order to make way for what was back then the next generation of pin setters. Ohh! Our next door neighbor was a muscle man for the mafia although I didn't know it at the time. I never understood why all of a sudden he was gone and nobody would tell me where he went or when he would come home. His family continued to live there for years after his disappearance. |

Really enjoyed the sub-page on Grits and Blocks, it helped fuel a conversation on the ridiculous violence now ongoing in the DC and PG African-American community over the latest Helly Hansen jackets, that are apparently "to die for." It was fun to reminiscence about those white working class greasers, who would never have paid anywhere close to $450 for a foreign-made winter jacket. Back then, all that fashion was very much union-made in the USA. |
