  • 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.

  • The Menomonee Valley a Window to Milwaukee’S Past and a Projection of Its Future
    The Menomonee Valley A Window to Milwaukee’s Past and a Projection of its Future Joseph Zagrodnik University of Wisconsin-Madison History 460, Section 307 24 November 2008 2 The one constant through the Menomonee Valley’s past has been its river. Of course, the river and everything around it has gone through astounding changes in the last few centuries, but the valley has always facilitated the flow of the Menomonee River on the final leg of its journey to Lake Michigan. Along this final path, specifically from Wisconsin Avenue to 27th street, the river passes some of the most striking symbols of Milwaukee’s past, present, and future which connect like nowhere else in the city. In this stretch, a baseball stadium and its vast parking lots pass by while a business park sits just behind the lots. Further down the river, two old smokestacks serve as the centerpiece to a new park, with steel trusses, manufacturing plants, and railroads in the background. At first, there may not seem to be much connection between these landmarks, but a closer look reveals that is the collision of these contrasting symbols in the geographical center of Milwaukee that makes the Menomonee Valley so remarkable. The economic initiatives represented by the smokestacks once contrasted with the ecological attributes still symbolized in the parks and river that first made the valley attractive to settlers. The impact of economic growth on the valley’s ecology is vital to understanding why the Menomonee Valley and the City of Milwaukee remain connected to this date. As the constant in the valley, the river is the best place to examine these changes.
