Milwaukee, WIMitchell St, 8th & Forest Home Aves.
We now know for sure that Milwaukee, Wisconsin received two fountains. We believed that one was installed at Ogden Ave. & North Water St. and the other was placed at Mitchell St, 8th & Forest Home Aves. Thanks to Chad Czarkowski and Mark Daniel we were able to confirm our Newberry Library picture of the fountain at Ogden Ave. & North Water St. And now thanks to Mark Daniel again, we have this great picture of the one at Mitchell St, 8th & Forest Home Aves. The streets have been renamed a bit and the original location is at the intersection of W. Mitchell Street, South 13th Street and West Forest Avenue. Click here for another great "holiday" picture of the fountain. You'll have to look carefully under the Christmas tree to find it!
However, the fountain is long gone. What happened to it? We don't know, but we'll keep searching! For more on the National Humane Alliance Fountains click here. |
