The City of Milwaukee's Uncommon Revenue Structure and How It Compares to Peer Cities
About the Public Policy Forum The Milwaukee-based Public Policy Forum, established in 1913 as a local government watchdog, is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the effectiveness of government and the development of Southeastern Wisconsin through objective research of regional public policy issues. Preface and Acknowledgments This report was undertaken to provide citizens and policymakers in the Milwaukee region and across the state with insights into the City of Milwaukee's revenue structure and how Milwaukee's framework for financing its city government compares with other similarly-sized cities across the United States. We hope that policymakers and community leaders will use the report’s findings to inform discussions during upcoming policy debates and budget deliberations at both the City and State level. Report authors would like to thank Milwaukee fiscal officials and staff, as well as budget officials from Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Cleveland, and Kansas City, for their assistance in providing financial information and for patiently answering our questions. We also would like to thank the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and its staff for the use of their database and for similarly answering our questions. In addition, we wish to acknowledge and thank the Greater Milwaukee Committee, which commissioned and helped fund this research as part of its MKE United initiative. We also thank the Northwestern Mutual Foundation and the Rockwell Automation Charitable Corporation for their long- standing support of our local government finance research. On the Money?

The Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad (1851)
Roots of the New York Central Railroad in Columbus, Ohio By Rowlee Steiner* 1952 THE CLEVELAND COLUMBUS & CINCINNATI RAILROAD (1851) Among the charters re-activated by the state in the late 1840's was the one which had been granted in 1836 to the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad. This company then started construction of a railroad from Cleveland thru Galion and Delaware to Columbus. The road entered Columbus from the north, running east of and parallel to Fourth Street, then swinging southwestward to enter the passenger depot of the road from Xenia. Regular traffic over this second road to enter Columbus was opened in April, 1851, more than a year after the Xenia road operated its first train. However, a grand excursion train passed over the road from Columbus to Cleveland on February 21, 1851, carrying members of the state legislature, city authorities of Columbus, and many other citizens, returning them to Columbus after a day’s visit in Cleveland. Although Cincinnati was included in the company name, the road was built originally between Cleveland and Columbus. The first actual move toward Cincinnati came in 1862. The Springfield Mt. Vernon & Pittsburgh Railroad had been nearly completed from Springfield thru Marysville to Delaware when the compony became insolvent, and in the litigation which followed, the property was conveyed to the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad. In 1868, the Cleveland Columbus & Cincinnati Railroad consolidated with the Bellefontaine Railroad and the name of the consolidated properties became the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati & Indianapolis Railroad. The consolidation gave the company a railroad consisting of lines between Cleveland and Columbus, Galion and Indianapolis, and Delaware and Springfield. -
Detroit–Shoreway Neighborhood Plan Summary
DETROIT-SHOREWAY NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN SUMMARY Description. Development began in the neighborhood in the 1850s along Detroit Street (Avenue), a major route connecting Cleveland with regions to the west and serving as the neighborhood’s main commercial district. Beginning in the late 1890s, industries began locating along the rail lines on the bluffs overlooking Lake Erie and then began to develop further to the south, along the rail lines running through the Walworth Run Valley. Detroit-Shoreway was built as a middle-income neighborhood, with a mix of single- and two-family homes and small multi-family structures, with more architecturally distinguished homes constructed along Franklin Avenue. There is still a strong presence of Italian and Romanian-American ethnic communities. In recent years, new waves of immigration have brought growing numbers of Hispanic and Asian residents. Assets. Among the neighborhood’s most significant assets are: • its proximity to Lake Erie and Edgewater Park • the West 65 th /Detroit retail district anchored by the Gordon Square Arcade and a growing cultural, performing arts and entertainment environment • a regionally renowned antiques and collectibles district on Lorain Avenue between West 45 th Street and Clark Avenue • the Eco-Village, an environmentally sensitive new housing development built in conjunction with adjacent rapid transit and recreational amenities at West 65 th and Lorain • new housing projects such as Ashbury Tower and Battery Park on former industrial sites Challenges. Among the challenges faced by the Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood today are: • creating stronger connections to the Lake Erie shoreline • the cost to clean-up contaminated industrial sites for reuse • attracting more retail uses to serve the shopping needs of residents • improving the appearance along the main commercial corridors of Detroit and Lorain • poor housing conditions in the neighborhood south of Lorain Avenue Vision. -

Why a University for Chicago and Not Cleveland? Religion and John D
Why a University For Chicago And Not Cleveland? Religion And John D. Rockefeller’s Early Philanthropy, 1855-1900 Kenneth W. Rose Assistant to the Director Rockefeller Archive Center ____________________ © 1995. This essay is a revised version of a paper prepared for the Western Reserve Studies Symposium in Cleveland, Ohio, October 6-7, 1995, and included in From All Sides: Philanthropy in the Western Reserve. Papers, Abstracts, and Program of the Tenth Annual Western Reserve Studies Symposium, sponsored by the Case Western Reserve University American Studies Program. (Cleveland: Case Western Reserve University, 1995), pp. 30-41. The author welcomes the scholarly use of the ideas and information in this essay, provided that the users properly acknowledge the source and notify the author of such citation at [email protected]. ____________________ Clevelanders sometimes seem to have a “What have you done for me lately?” attitude with regard to John D. Rockefeller. As if the creation on the Cuyahoga’s shores of one of the country’s most powerful and influential corporations is not enough, some Clevelanders look to Rockefeller’s enormous charitable giving and wonder why he built no major institution in Cleveland to provide jobs and world renown under the Rockefeller banner. Most people who express such opinions often point, with a hint of jealousy, to the University of Chicago as an example of Cleveland’s missing Rockefeller landmark. To believe that a Rockefeller-endowed University of Cleveland would today have the same academic and intellectual reputation as the present-day University of Chicago, one must assume that the same personalities and forces that shaped the University of Chicago would have been present in Cleveland, and that they would have behaved and acted exactly the same way in this different environment. -
