Interview with Cebe Sue Barnett about growing up in Riverside Terrace. She describes a close-knit community. She notes the changes in the neighborhood, specifically mentioning the impact of the highway. She describes it as an affluent neighborhood, though there was a range of wealth. Despite this, she feels there was not a class distinction. Barnett talks about the layout of the neighborhood before the highway. She discusses the makeup of the neighborhood, describing it as half Jewish, though the children didn't have any barriers.
