RESOURCE DESIGN GROUP ••• 331 East Kingsley Ann Arbor Michigan 48104 ABSTRACT The City of Milwaukee, Department of City Development, has undertaken an intensive survey of an area known as Brewers' Hill, for the purposes of determining and recording the architectural and historic resources of the area, and for developing planning and development strategies for the area. The area surveyed and inventoried encompassed approximately 495 acres. The Brewers' Hill area consists of a variety of land uses, but is most easily described as consisting of the North Third Street commercial corridor, the industrial district along the north bank of the Milwaukee River, and resi­ dential areas closely tied to those two districts. The area is bounded by North Sixth Street on the east, McKinley Avenue on the south, the Milwaukee River on the southwest, and North Avenue on the north. A sub-area also included in the study extends north from North Avenue to East Center Street, and from North Second Street on the east to North First Street on the west. Each of the more than 1200 structures and sites was photographed and docu­ mented on inventory forms and survey cards. As a result of the inventory, the consultants recommended that four historic districts be established and that seventeen individual buildings and sites be considered for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The consultants prepared a National Register Multiple Resource Nomination includ­ ing the aforementioned districts and individual building and sites. The somewhat more general overall results of the survey/inventory effort, including research findings and summaries of resources, are presented in this Intensive Survey Report (The National Register Nomination is included in the Appendix of this report). Recommendations are presented in the form of suggestions for residential rehabilitation and preservation programs, design guidelines for commercial buildings in the North Third Street corridor (presented in detail in a separate North Third Street Area Historic Preservation Study), and planning strategies for preservation and development activities in the area.

INTRODUCTION This study was intended to provide an assessment of the historical and archi­ tectural resources of the North Third Street/Brewers Hill area of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This has been done through an intensive survey of this area in accordance with the guidelines of the Historic Preservation Division of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin and the National Park Service of the United States Department of the Interior. Additionally, this study was con­ ducted under contract with the City of Milwaukee, Department of City Develop­ ment acting as coordinator for the work product. This survey has identified those buildings, structures, sites, and districts located within the boundaries of the study area which have sufficient histori­ cal and/or architectural merit to be eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places under the criteria of the Department of the In­ terior. The map which follows describes the area of study within the City of Milwaukee. The project includes two basic work elements. The first was an intensive survey of all properties in the study area and research conducted on several historical themes. The intensive survey of these properties is designed to collect the data necessary to assess the eligibility of- each property for inclusion on the National Register. The results of the intensive survey are then presented in this report and on the intensive survey forms prepared for each site and district. The second task was to assist the City of Milwaukee with the preparation of a multiple resource nomination of all eligible properties to the National Register.

BACKGROUND RESEARCH/HISTORICAL SUMMARY EARLY SETTLEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT: MILWAUKEE. 1818-1850 The North Third Street/Brewers Hill area of Milwaukee was one of the first areas of the city to be settled. Thus, its early history is closely tied with the develop­ ment of Milwaukee. The site of the city, where the Milwaukee River, draining a large area of timberland and prairie to the northwest, and the Menomonee River, serving a large watershed to the west, joined and emptied into Lake Michigan, had long been an important hunting, fishing, and trapping ground for several prehis­ toric and historic Indian tribes. Hundreds of mounds and dozens of Indian village sites have been located within the city limits.

    EXHIBIT A LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT (Former) Schlitz Brewery-Tied House 1944 N. Oakley Ave. Final Landmark Recommendation adopted by the Commission on Chicago Landmarks, July 7, 2011 CITY OF CHICAGO Rahm Emanuel, Mayor Department of Housing and Economic Development Andrew J. Mooney, Commissioner Bureau of Planning and Zoning Historic Preservation Division The Commission on Chicago Landmarks, whose nine members are appointed by the Mayor and City Council, was established in 1968 by city ordinance. The Commission is responsible for recommend- ing to the City Council which individual buildings, sites, objects, or districts should be designated as Chicago Landmarks, which protects them by law. The landmark designation process begins with a staff study and a preliminary summary of information related to the potential designation criteria. The next step is a preliminary vote by the landmarks commission as to whether the proposed landmark is worthy of consideration. This vote not only initiates the formal designation process, but it places the review of city permits for the property under the jurisdiction of the Commission until a final landmark recommendation is acted on by the City Council. This Landmark Designation Report is subject to possible revision and amendment during the designation process. Only language contained within a designation ordinance adopted by the City Council should be regarded as final. (Former) Schlitz Brewery-Tied House 1944 N. Oakley Ave. Date: 1898 Architect: Kley & Lang The former Schlitz Brewery-Tied House at 1944 N.

    Volume 28 Issue 3 Jackson Historical Society November 2020 POLITICAL SHENANIGANS IN HISTORIC WISCONSIN After Wisconsin became a territory in 1836 and a State in 1848, development continued in earnest. The state had functioned for a num- ber of years with a kind of split personality. The southwest part of the state was industrialized around lead mining, with people arriving up the Mississippi River from the south, seeking their fortune. Cornish immi- grants arrived to work the underground lead mines, giving the state it’s future nickname, Badger. Meanwhile, immigrants arriving in the Wisconsin Territory by ship often settled around the various Lake Michigan ports as that was where Jackson Historical Society Museum commerce was concentrated and many of the jobs were.

  • The Menomonee Valley: a Historical Overview
    The Menomonee Valley: A Historical Overview by John Gurda The Menomonee Valley has been one of Milwaukee’s distinguishing features since long before the dawn of urban time. Four miles long and a half-mile wide, it was formed by meltwater during the retreat of the last continental glacier, which departed Wisconsin roughly 10,000 years ago. Although the Valley’s topography varied from year to year and even from season to season, it was generally a sprawling expanse of open water punctuated by beds of wild rice and dense mats of cattails, rushes, and reeds. Writing in 1875, pioneer historian James Buck described the Valley east of Fifth Street as “a wild rice swamp, covered with water from two to six feet in depth; in fact an impassable marsh.” The Valley was not impassable to native canoes. It was, in fact, a storehouse of resources that attracted human settlement centuries before anyone contemplated a city. The Menomonee River provided a canoe route from Lake Michigan to the interior, but far more important were the plants and animals it supported. Wild rice was a critically important food source for the procession of tribes who made their homes in the area. (The name “Menomonee” itself is derived from the word for wild rice.) Wetland plants provided the raw materials for baskets, mats, and shelters. Fish and waterfowl were abundant. James Buck penned a verdant description of the Valley in the 1830s: “All the marsh proper … would, in the Spring, be literally alive with fish that came in from the lake…. And the number of ducks that covered the marsh was beyond all computation.
