MONROE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION <br />SOUTH BEND, INDIANA <br /> <br /> <br />Dear Adam Toering, Specialist Monday, March 15, 2021 <br />Historic Preservation Commission <br />227 W Jefferson Blvd. #1400S <br />South Bend, Indiana 46601 <br /> <br />Dear Adam, <br /> <br />On behalf of the Monroe Park Neighborhood Association and all of the neighbors we represent, we are <br />requesting the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend, IN and St. Joseph County to please <br />consider helping us gain both state and federal/national recognition of Taylor’s Field—the historical <br />district embedded within our neighborhood. <br /> <br />Lathrop Taylor, a military veteran, along with Alexis Coquillard, helped establish South Bend, IN in the <br />late 1820s. Colonel Taylor settled in what is now called Monroe Park, one of the earliest city tracts of <br />land in South Bend. The historic district named after Colonel Taylor is embedded within our <br />neighborhood and contains many historical homes. There are several other historic homes within the <br />boundaries of Monroe Park, and we would appreciate being recognized as much as possible as an <br />historical neighborhood. We will look forward to any information you can assist us in gathering to move <br />this intention along to the appropriate authorities at both the state and federal levels. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Mike Coman, <br />President <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-386-3216 <br />jmikecoman2@gmail.com <br /> <br />Stacey Odom, <br />Vice President <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-229-5349 <br />staceyodom1927@gmail.com <br /> <br />Margie Pfeil and Biff Weidman, <br />Secretary <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-520-7745 <br />574-287-1854 <br />mpfeil1@nd.edu <br />rweidman@hotmail.com <br /> <br />Rick Tribble, <br />Treasurer <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-532-0443 <br />rtribble@gmail.com <br /> <br />Gil Michel, <br />Board Member <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-514-8954 <br />gil.michel@gmail.com <br /> <br />Frank Ermeti, <br />Board Member <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-612-1573 <br />frank.ermeti@gmail.com <br /> <br />Bill Erdman, <br />Board Member <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />574-528-0145 <br />Erdmanb@comcast.net <br /> <br />Jason Isch, <br />Board Member <br />Monroe Park Neighborhood Association <br />260-820-1533 <br />jisch@manchester.edu <br /> <br />
