Situated atop a bluff overlooking the lake, the North Point North Historic District is located about two miles northeast of Milwaukee's central business district. The District lies just northeast of the North Point Water Tower (NRHP 2-23-73), an elaborate stone-clad High Victorian Gothic style structure surrounded by a small formal park (Water Tower Park) that serves as the demarcation point between the North Point North residential area to its north and the older North Point South (NRHP 9-4-79) residential area to its south. "North Point" refers to a bulge in the coastline of Lake Michigan that, in conjunction with "South Point," forms the greater Milwaukee harbor. The North Point area became one of Milwaukee's most prestigious residential neighborhoods, largely because of the panoramic lake views that its bluff sites command. The District includes the residential area that is bounded approximately by North Wahl Avenue, East Park Place, the northwest (rear) lot line of North Summit Avenue, North Downer Avenue, and the north and east lot lines of St. Mary's Hospital. It also includes the east-facing Lake Park side of a single block (the 2700 block of N. Lake St.) that consists of lots and houses adjacent to and similar to those in the District. Lake Park (NRHP 4-22-93) extends from Water Tower Park north to Kenwood Boulevard and it is bounded on the east by Lake Michigan and on the west by North Wahl Avenue and North Lake Drive. It is a wooded park containing a golf course, various pavilions and picnic areas connected by a system of curving pathways and roads. It provides the principal focus for several adjacent residential neighborhoods, including North Point North, and its proximity was instrumental in the development of North Point North as an upper- middle-class residential area. North Point North Historic District consists of a portion of the bluff that was known as Oilman's Subdivision of Part of Lockwood's Addition. The District includes most of the blocks that comprised the original subdivision, some peripheral properties having been excluded because they differ in land use. Exclusively residential, the District portion of the original subdivision is bordered by Lake Park to the east and to the south, by St. Mary's Hospital and other institutional and commercial buildings to the west, and by another residential neighborhood to the north. North Point North is built-up mostly with large, masonry, single-family homes, although it includes a number of low rise apartment buildings, as well as former mansions that have been converted into multi-family dwellings. There are few vacant lots within the district. The contributing residences in the District were built between 1895 and 1949 and are considerably larger than the houses in most Milwaukee neighborhoods. Most were built for prominent Milwaukee citizens during the first three decades of the twentieth century, and they reflect both the high status of their original owners and the prosperity of the era in which they were built. Most of the residences are two and a half stories in height, the partial third story often intended for servants' quarters. There are also eight apartment buildings in the district, which range from two to four stories in height. The smallest ones contain four units each and the largest contains twenty-four units. With some exceptions, the District's buildings are predominantly clad in masonry. The most frequently used exterior materials are brown brick with wood and limestone trim, but there are a number of stone-faced residences as well. There is also some use of stucco, especially in conjunction with brick. In addition, there are a few clapboard-clad examples. 1 The 1990 population of the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin's largest city, was 628,088. 2NPS Form 10-900-a (Rev. 8-86) Wisconsin Word Processing Format (Approved 1/92) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section 7 Page 2 North Point North Historic District _____________ Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, WI The architectural styles represented in the district include the Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, German Renaissance Revival, Tudor Revival, Georgian Revival, Mediterranean Revival, Arts and Crafts, Craftsman and Prairie School styles. English- influenced designs predominate, few of which are actually academically faithful to their English models. Most, however, are only vaguely reminiscent of them, their designs reflecting the eclecticism that permeated both American and

    Bell MTS SUPPLEMENTARY TARIFF CRTC 24002 SPECIAL SERVICES AND FACILITIES Part II 5th Revised Page 81 Cancels 4th Revised Page 81 INTEGRATED DIGITAL NETWORK SERVICES ITEM Because the Commission has forborne, in Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2009-19, with respect to the regulation of this service as set out in that decision, the Company may also provide the service in C this tariff item at rates and on terms different from the tariffed rates and terms pursuant to an agreement entered into between the Company and a competitor that has been filed with the Commission for the C public record. 5820 ASYMMETRIC DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE (ADSL) DATA ACCESS SERVICE 1. GENERAL A. ADSL Data Access service is a broadband access service based on Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology. The service enables a High Speed Service Provider (HSSP) to establish a high-speed data access path between its end-user premises and a Company serving Wire Centre. End-user login and C password authentication are established via a “network selection gateway” which can enable access to multiple destination networks. B. ADSL is a transmission technology that provides asymmetric transmission (higher bandwidth in one direction, and lower bandwidth in the opposite direction) of data. ADSL delivers high-speed downstream transmission to the end-user and a lower- speed upstream transmission to the HSSP. No reverse (lower-speed downstream, high-speed upstream) ADSL transmission is permitted. C. The service is limited to lines terminating on individual line station equipment. ADSL Data Access service does not prevent the simultaneous use of the end- user’s telephone line for voice-band applications, permissive data or facsimile.

  • Glossary of Common Telecommunications Terms
    A Real Estate Professional’s Glossary of Common Telecommunications Terms Bandwidth - A term used to describe the capacity of wiring to carry communications signals or how much information can travel along a pathway in a given period of time. A typical data transmission would involve many thousands or millions of bits per second. Broadband – A communications channel having a bandwidth greater than a voice grade channel characterized by high data transmission speeds. Bundled Services - The combination of several services, such as local telephone, long distance telephone, internet access and video, with a single bill to the customer. Cable System - A multichannel video programming distribution facility consisting of a set of closed transmission paths and associated signal generation, reception and control equipment designed to provide cable service (including video programming) to multiple subscribers within a community. Cell Site - The location of a cellular radio antenna. Cellular Telephone System – A land based mobile telephone system wherein channels assigned to the system are divided among many geographic “cells”, each covering a defined service area. Each cell is served by its own low powered transmitter and receiver and is connected to the telephone network through landline telephone trunks. As a user moves from one cell to an adjacent cell the call is instantly shifted from one transmitter/receiver to the next one. Central Office (C.O.) - Telephone company facility where customers’ lines are joined to switching equipment used for connecting customers to each other, locally and for long distance. Coaxial Cable - A cable consisting of an outer conductor concentric to an inner conductor, separated from each other by insulating material.

    FEDERAL REGULATION AND COMPETITIVE ACCESS TO MULTIPLE-UNIT PREMISES: MORE CHOICE IN COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES? LYNNE HOLT* & MARK JAMISON** I. INTRODUCTION The nature of competition in the United States’ communications sector changed significantly over the past two decades. Before the 1990s, ‘‘competition’’ referred to the fight among providers of discrete services, such as the contest among AT&T, MCI, and Sprint over the long- distance slice of the communications pie. Today, competition is much more likely to describe the fight over the entire pie, among firms offering a ‘‘triple play’’ of services----high-speed Internet service, video, and t e l e p h o n y ----over a single broadband platform. Some firms recently expanded the pie with a ‘‘quadruple play’’ that includes wireless services as well. Cable operators, traditional wireline telephone companies, and, increasingly, wireless providers are competing to offer consumers both the underlying broadband platform and various bundled services that ride across it. However, not all consumers benefit from this competition in like manner.1 Public policy deliberations tend to focus more on differences in access to communications services either between consumers in rural and * Dr. Lynne Holt, Policy Analyst, Public Utility Research Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611-7142, [email protected]. ** Dr. Mark A.

  • 2011-2012 Wisconsin Blue Book: Statistics
    STATISTICS: HISTORY 679 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.
