Share Your History & Memories
Milwaukee Makes Place
DO YOU HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE?
A new online scrapbook is collecting photos and stories from City of Milwaukee
neighborhood residents.
Charles Vestal thinks more people should know about the Fondy Farmer’s Market. “I like to go there because it is a festive place with vegetables on sale, and because it brings together people from different backgrounds.”
John Eklund’s contribution calls attention to the place at our feet with photos of the sidewalk stamped City of Milwaukee. “There was a time when local government in the city was expected to do things for the community and we were happy about this, maybe even proud.”
Yves LaPierre enjoys the strange combination of St. Hyacinthe Church and abandoned gas station located near 15th & Becher. “The charm shines through
the decrepitude.”
TO CONTRIBUTE YOUR PHOTO OR STORY:
e-mail picture@milwaukeemakesplace.org
