Saint Catherine Street) What will be discussed at this meeting? Louisville Metro Government received a number of suggestions regarding the new impound location. One suggestion to relocate vehicles held at the impound lot as evidence in a criminal or civil lawsuit or investigation to a separate, secured location. This would decrease the number of vehicles at the impound lot by approximately 350, allowing towing operations to resume as space was made available through vehicle relocation. A warehouse located on 9th Street has been identified as a proposed alternative storage location for impounded vehicles being held as evidence. The warehouse will provide an indoor, secure location for these vehicles, and is located in an industrial area of the California neighborhood. Impacts to the neighborhood are expected to be minimal because access to the warehouse will not be through a residential area, the warehouse is surrounded by commercial and industrial uses, the vehicles will be secured indoors and the relatively small number of trips associated with adding or removing vehicles from the space will not significantly affect traffic on 9th Street.

Its very name brings up thoughts of the Irish -- shamrocks, leprechauns, the wearing of the green. But the Limerick neighborhood was home to a small, close-knit community years before the first Irishman put down roots in the area. Before the Civil War, much of the area was farm land. Starting in the 1830s, a small community of blacks lived in the area between Broadway and Kentucky Street. Many were slaves who labored on a large plantation at Seventh and Kentucky streets; others were free blacks who were household servants. In 1858, the Louisville & Nashville Railroad bought the Kentucky Locomotive Works at 10th and Kentucky streets for $80,000, and within a decade, the railroad had built repair shops and a planing mill. At about that time, many Irish workers began moving their families from Portland into Limerick, nearer their jobs. Typically, they lived in modest brick or wood-fiarne houses or shotgun cottages, which were later replaced by the three-story brick and stone structures that line the streets today. L & N also hired black laborers, who lived with their families in homes in alleys behind streets. But fi-om the mid- 19th century until about 1905, Limerick was known as the city's predominant Irish neighborhood. Some historic accounts credit Tom Reilly, an early resident, with giving the neighborhood its name, and others believe it was named for the county or city of Limerick, which is on Ireland's west coast.
