Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the historical significance of Bay View, originally established as a company town for the Milwaukee Iron Company in 1867. It highlights the town's origins, including its incorporation as a village in 1879 and eventual annexation by Milwaukee. The narrative details the impact of the steel mill's closure in 1929 and its demolition a decade later. As Wisconsin's first company town and Milwaukee's first industrial suburb, Bay View's legacy is preserved through the Bay View National Historic District, celebrating its rich community heritage.
