I’ve always been proud to be from Gary Indiana and every time I visit, it always makes me feel some type of positive way! Rip MJ

I remember when that house was brick red with no fence, no iron gate before it was made a landmark to the Jacksons. My big brothers and many other youth use to play basketball on the courts at Roosevelt High School  across the alley and behind Jackson street.

I was born and raised on Chicago’s southside, and we’ve always considered Gary to be a Chicago suburb(It’s only 15 minutes away from my house)… And for those who don’t know, a lot of talent has came out of Gary, not just the Jackson’s!

It’s nice to see where it all began. Thank you for sharing with us all.

I went there back in 1998 and his cousin was outside and we talked for a hour. Wasn't no fence at that time. I still have the pictures. Also the school they went to is right around the corner. Roosevelt.

Michael invited me to come join him during his last visit in 2003 to 2300 Jackson Street, but I didn't have a great car to drive 3 hours there and back to Toledo Ohio. I wish I had now. But hopefully one day I will be able to see where he began his life and career at.

I’m so glad I had the chance to go there. A cherished piece of American history. Michael is always missed. 💜🙏🏻

I visited that little house on September 28, 2012 after touring the Motown Museum in Detroit from my home in Snellville GA.. Along with an older brother, I only saw two ladies and a little girl during my approximately 30 minutes visit.

How nice that it was enshrined by the Jackson family. It's a wonderful tribute.

Michael was born as the population was booming in Gary, the city that had the highest percentage of african-americans, he was the embodiment and epitome of black culture and music
