    Not very often since I grew up in St. Louis and the 'Burbs.

    I visited my old neighborhood in the late '80s but the block was already razed where my old apt bldg was. But did get pics of two protected bldgs, a church and my elementary school.

    Thanks to the Internet, I can now visit by cyberspace.

    I don't. Only if there's a specific reason (which is very rare), I wouldn't go just to reminisce.

    I wish I could every time I go to Chicago. I did two years ago and it's just not safe anymore.

    I drove passed earlier this year. I happened to be close by and figured WTF? Took a few pics to send to my brother and father of how owners since we were there have fucked up a nice house. My brother told me he looked it up on Google maps and someone put a pool in the back that takes up almost the whole backyard.

    Often, since my mom lives about 5 minutes from the area. But the actual street...maybe every few years.

    I was actually in that area about a week and a half ago. Didn't drive down my street, but close to it. Went to the library I used to go to a lot when I was a kid.
