Street sign at Chrysler and Lafayette. On my map the service drive is labeled Hastings
but the street sign says "Chrysler".

If you were to turn left at Lafayette, you would pass by the corner of St. Antoine and Lafayette
where
John Lee Hooker
was first recorded. The man who "discovered" him, Elmer Barbee,
had a record store called Barbee's there at 609 Lafayette. Now it is just a church parking lot.
If you click on any of the pictures with the brown frame, you will be taken on a side
tour. This side tour would take you to places associated with John Lee Hooker.
