Traces of spaces along N. 27th St. between W. Grand Ave. & W. Wells St.
















They just don't design them like they used to! This double house is long gone from the east side of N. 27th Street, but there are families who would be able to identify their history there as owners or renters through census records or city directories. The footprint image from the Sanborn fire insurance map is suprisingly accurate (UW-Milwaukee Golda Meir Library digital collection)
