T he new sign s had their grand unveiling at a noon-time ceremony at St. Andrew's Church on 35th and Lisbon on Friday, November 13, 1998. Mayor John O. Norquist was on hand to congratulate those involved in the effort. Displaying these with pride will contribute further to neighborhood self-awareness and sense of cooperative concern. The laminate signs have the history of the neighborhood on the back side. If you would like one of these to display in your window, call L.A.N.D. at 344-1214 or drop in at the L.A.N.D. office at 1952 N. 36th Street in the old St. Thomas Aquinas church property.
Larger donations are much appreciated.
In a nice touch , the name of the neighborhood is embossed into the ends of the sidewalk railings on all four bridge corners. We intend to find out where the ball was dropped. The area east of the tracks, the von Moltke subdivision, had previously been included in the Midtown Neighborhood, the rest of which lies east of 27th Street. Apparently, all the maps did not get changed.
