Indiana State Road 51 - History

History

Between 1918 and 1926, SR 51 went from SR 2 in Elkhart to the Michigan state line, now the route is State Road 19. In 1926, SR 51 was removed from that section of roadway and it was signed as US 112.

There were plans to build SR 51 from State Road 10 to State Road 2, but that route was never built.

    “... that there is no other way,
    That the history of creation proceeds according to
    Stringent laws, and that things

    We set out to accomplish and wanted so desperately
    To see come into being.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Properly speaking, history is nothing but the crimes and misfortunes of the human race.”
