We would view designating the half block to our west as part of an historic district an <br />obstacle to our future potential growth and as a statement in contradiction of the support <br />we have had from the city in years past. <br />This coming year we will be celebrating our 100`h anniversary as a congregation. Since <br />1949 we have been in our present location and before that we were located at the corner <br />of LaSalle and Taylor Streets. We have been committed to the near downtown area for <br />our entire existence. We hope to maintain that commitment, but cannot promise to do so <br />if property immediately adjacent to ours is designated historic and therefore subject to <br />preservation. <br />We ask that the Historic Preservation Commission recommend that the Chapin Park <br />Historic District ordinance by amended to exclude the half block in question from the <br />proposed district by re -drawing the southern boundary to coincide with Marion Street. <br />It is my intent to attend your meeting scheduled for October 18th to request the <br />commission to recommend modification of the proposed ordinance. <br />Please share this correspondence with other members of the commission. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Sincerely,.-. ,} <br />_ �-� .moi <br />Geo6ey I. wman <br />Past preside t of Temple Beth -El <br />
