File:Dunes Park Post 0387.jpg

'On this site stood the former Dunes Park District Headquarters of the Indiana State Police. The two-story, brick facility was constructed and opened in 1937 as part of the federal WPA (Works Progress Administration) initiative started by President Franklin Roosevelt. Troopers from Dunes Park investigated crimes and patrolled the highways in Northwest Indiana. In particular, officers worked on U.S. 20 which was known as "Bloody 20" and was featured in a 1951 Saturday Evening Post article. The road was known as the deadliest in the U.S. and was a main artery between Chicago and Detroit before the interstate system was created. The Dunes Park Post was closed in August 1977 when it combined with the Schererville Post to form what is now the Lowell District.'
