This is an 1873 Asa Coolidge Warren view of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The view is oriented to the west, and shows the city skyline as seen over a forest - the neighborhood which would develop into Juneau Town, almost certainly as seen from the 1855 North Point Lighthouse. The view is remarkable in that it pre-dates the 1880s architectual explosion. Later views would emphasize Milwaukee's booming factories and tall buildings: here instead is the forest that would in part become Milwaukee's Lake Park. (more details)
