I am writing to ask that you support the creation of an
historic district for Old Town in Ames.
Although I do not live in Ames city limits, I once did
and still own property here. I feel it is so important for
these lovely older homes to be appreciated and preserved.
The unique craftsmanship that is found in these homes is absent
in most houses built after this time. Cities need to grow
and build to survive but they must also preserve at least a
small part of their past.
Please vote in favor of the establishment of an historic
preservation district. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Carolyn Yorgensen
