As presented at the last Neighborhood Association meeting, Menlo Park is partnering with Professor Helen Erickson and her class of graduate and undergraduate UA students to develop a Menlo Park historic asset map and historic preservation plan.

At 6:30pm next Wednesday at the Pima County Housing Center, Helen and her students will be holding an Open House for anyone who wants to learn more about the project and is willing to talk with their team about historic resources or other aspects of heritage important to the neighborhood.

Here are the 4 questions they will be asking neighbors throughout the research period, and that they want to hear from you next week!

How would you describe Menlo Park to someone who has never been there?

Where would you take someone who is visiting Menlo Park for the first time?

What places in Menlo Park make you feel most at home and why?

What improvements would you like to see in Menlo Park and what would you hate to lose?

If you’re able to come through for a few minutes next Wednesday, please do so. Your engagement helps in many ways, and ties into our neighborhood plan efforts.

Thanks!
