Livonia
postcards featuring Larry Nehasil Park and Wilson Barn are now available at the
Livonia Chamber of Commerce.
It is
the first time in recent history the chamber offered postcards, but the new
mementos were inspired by requests by visitors to the chamber office.
“There
are a number of people who frequently who ask if we have Livonia postcards,”
said Chamber President Dan West. “You usually think about postcards sold at tourist-type
places. We may not be a tourist destination but there are quite a few Livonia
residents who want them. I think that really speaks to how much Livonians
appreciate their community.”
The
new postcards will sell for 25 cents each. One postcard features one of
Livonia’s newest landmarks, Larry Nehasil Park which was dedicated in October.
The other postcard features one of Livonia’s most historic sites, Wilson Barn,
which dates back to the 1830s.
The
postcards, West said, will give residents and business owners a chance to
promote Livonia.
“This
should give those people a new way to express their Livonia pride,” he added.
The
postcards will be sold in the lobby of the Livonia Chamber of Commerce, located
on Five Mile just east of Farmington Road. After the holiday break, office
hours are weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
