The only things I know about Gary, Indiana are: A) it is the birthplace of the Jackson 5, and B) that it burns to the ground in an insane conflagration in the Stephen King novel The Stand, which is about post-apocalyptic America.
As much as I love "A-B-C," I think King had the right idea. See picture, above.

There is a lot to see and learn about Gary, Indiana, that can never be appreciated on a drive-thru. There is a web site which provides extensive information on the
Development
History
Politics
Government
Economics
Ethnic diversity
Past & Present People/Places/Events
of the "Steel City," Gary, Indiana. Of course U.S. Steel is covered, particularly the "World's Largest Plate Mill," the 210 inch Plate Mill. The site gives a thorough and understandable explanation of how steel is made.
It also details the tragic story of the 1981 murder of Gary Police Lt. George Yaros.
The web site has many photos and does permits users to contibute/participate in a blog.
The web site is Dave's Den
