Letter — Seventh District Police Station

December 1972

November 14, 1972 Dear Editor: The time has come to make a decision on moving the 7th District Police Station to Yalem Center at Union and Enright, which we understand is under consideration by the Police Department. Far too long have our police officers been relegated to the miserable conditions at Union and Page – a building that should long ago have been condemned by the City Building Department. The former Yalem Center is a large building which could well house the Police, Juvenile Court offices, and City Services – a real boon to the neighborhood and the district – and only a few blocks from the present station. Citizens of the 7th District, particularly, should make known their support for this move for better services. Sincerely, Elizabeth Renard (Mrs. Robert)
