4 <br />SOUTH BEND & SAINT JOSEPH COUNTY <br />HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION <br />235-9798 <br />October 18, 2002 <br />TO: Landmark Committee <br />Commission Members <br />FROM: Karen R. Hammond -Nash, Director <br />RE: Nelson & Son Dairy, 1906 —1918 <br />602 Euclid Avenue, South Bend <br />Staff respectfully recommends to the landmark Committee, and to the Commission, that <br />this property should not be designated a local historic landmark at this time. <br />The Nelson and Son Dairy, when it was in operation, was a very typical, and historically <br />very interesting example of local family operated industry and farming. Nelson & Son <br />glass milk bottles from the early 1900s are much prized by antique dealers. As the visitor <br />to our September 3, 2002 meeting stated, the Nelson family were — and are — a well <br />regarded, industrious family with several members still residing in and contributing to <br />South Bend. <br />The structure of the original dairy, however, is small, difficult to see from any public <br />street, and has been significantly altered, so that it now appears more like an ordinary <br />two -car garage, than like a dairy. <br />We have discussed this matter with Mr. Oakley, who first proposed landmark status for <br />this structure, and we believe that he also is in agreement that, while recognition of the <br />important contributions of family farm and industry to South Bend is a good idea, <br />landmark designation for this structure is not the best means for accomplishing that <br />recognition. <br />
