    THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 29, Number 29 Thursday, July 25, 2013 Michiana Remains Quiet, Tight-Knit Community by Wm. Halliar Judy Purze stands beside a typical 1930’s log cabin. In the southwestern-most corner of Berrien County, Mich., the gateway to Michigan’s famed Harbor Country, the sleepy village of Michiana lays in quiet repose, refl ecting the easy rhythm of the surf as it plays upon Lake Michigan’s often tempestuous waters. The area is rich in the history and lore of the many bands of Indians that crisscrossed the landscape for hundreds of years in search of game and good camp grounds. Chief Leopold Pokagon and his fellow Potawatomi called the area home. The shores of Lake Michigan became a meeting place for local tribes where sto- ries, furs and wares could be traded. The lake, itself, became an easy trade route between the many tribes and also the white set- tlers in Chicago and Detroit. Until the early 1920s, the land was covered by a dense forest and could only be traversed by well-worn Indian trails. In 1927, the Long Beach Development Co. began to clear the land and subdivide the area, building meandering roads through the sand dunes up and away from the lakeshore.

  • 2020 Annual Report
    STRONGER TOGETHER YMCA of Greater Michiana 3 FACILITIES, 1 CAMP ABOUT THE YMCA of Greater Michiana In 2020, we asked you to stick with us. We’re happy to say that with your continued support we were able to offer virtual classes, free childcare for essential workers, operate as a food distribution site, and provide other offerings for our communities throughout the year. Not to mention all of the accomplishments you will read throughout this report. The YMCA may be best known for its fitness opportunities, but not everyone knows that the Y is a nonprofit committed to strengthening community by connecting all people to their potential, purpose, and each other. We believe everyone should have to opportunity to be a part of this community, which is why we continue to award membership scholarships annually. Without the Y, so many senior citizens would feel an increased sense of isolation, so many children would go home to an empty house after school instead of engaging in recreational and educational opportunities, and so many people would not be challenged to become their healthiest self possible. Because of our members’ care and generosity, we were able to reopen our doors when mandated closures were lifted. Our goal is to continue to be a safe place to serve our members and community to the highest standards you’ve come to expect for years to come. Because we are stronger together. Mark D.

The first Holland Historic District was established in 1986. This was followed by an expansion of the district in 1992 and the establishment of the Washington Boulevard Historic District in 2001. Properties in the districts now total almost 400 within a locally designated historic district. Local designation of properties requires a review of exterior alterations and protects the properties from inappropriate exterior alteration that could compromise the historical or architectural integrity of the property. A number of properties in the City have been listed on the National or State Register of Historic Places. This is a designation that identifies properties as significant to the City, State and Nation architecturally and/or historically. National or State Register designation does not protect the property or require any review of alterations on the property unless Federal funds would be utilized for the work on the property. A list of these properties is included in this document. In 1995 a historical consultant was charged with conducting intensive level research on eleven structures in the City which were architecturally and historically significant. Descriptions of the eleven Landmark Properties are included in this document.
