Milwaukee, Wisconsin Street
Pictures by H. H. Bailey
Streetcars and horse carriages roll down Milwaukee's busy Wisconsin Street around 1900, beneath the red-roofed tower of the Pabst Building, in a softly coloured photochrom. The tower was built in 1892 for the brewer Frederick Pabst and was one of the city's first skyscrapers. For anyone who calls Milwaukee home or misses it.
