Brooks Stevens designed (among other things), the postwar Jeep station wagon, the Jeepster, and the Studebaker GT Hawk.

Actually the USM Lady Elgin was an old fashioned common dive "gin mill", and some of the passengers are boarding that cheap saloon, for the booze. Note many of the Union Guards are from Catholic Saint John Cathedral, which was mainly anti-booze semi-Baptist. The saloon thought the ship was supposed to stay at its regular dock space due to a storm on Lake Michigan, but the accountant owner of the Lady Elgin, Gordon Hubbard, ordered the ship to depart for Milwaukee, who wants to move a lot of cargo before the Soo locks freeze for the winter, heading for/from Duluth-Superior. The USM Lady Elgin was mainly a freighter, with poor passenger accommodations: only a few staterooms, and minimum lifeboats. Chicago US Harbormaster Phillip Conley staff allowed Captain Wilson and helmsman Davis to depart over crowded, and possibly over loaded, with cast iron stoves/furnaces, and a big cattle herd, during a windy storm. After departure, Captain Darius Mallott, allowed his un-lit Schooner Augusta of Oswego, to ram the Lady Elgin, instead of heaving to and anchoring, against the storm.

Amazing lady, I'm sure her family are very proud of her accomplish !

Thank goodness for people like Barbara. What an extraordinary women! What a beautiful house!

Beautiful story and documentary. Thank you.

This is an absolutely fantastic video, and I thank you for it. Terrific interviews, content, editing....thank you so much!

The tiles are Ludowici tiles. I successfully repaired a porch of these tiles originally built 1914. The glazed quarry tiles are not available, but we altered the cosmetics of new tiles and used custom glaze to obtain the green verde of the porch trivets.

Well done! That applies to everyone involved in the production of this video. Thank you!

You should have included the address’s and area.

Web technologies help us now mix all kind of interests, such iconic locations might become cycling races datings as well, discovering hidden beauties out there in the deep America pushing pedals is... heavenly bliss friends. A genius architect is not only a guy gifted to build up spectacular structures, but a huge inspiration of life, a new point of view, a new way on managing the inner resources. Most people is not used to dig deep in their inner feelings to pull out spectacular things.. well, I do believe, any single individual is holding within a huge treasure, just willing to let it surface and shine like a diamond 🎉❤🎉

Excellent program. Thank you

Perhaps Wright’s only true interest was aspect-situating a building as an object in a landscape. To that end he ignored conventional notions of human comfort, like light, space, and accommodation, and instead played with “features” that actually restrict occupants’ freedom. What a drag.

Something new to me, the rescue of Joshua from the jail. That was awesome. We need to be able to preserve justice, for everyone. 🌹⚓

Near beer during prohibition is a rabbit hole. I think of it as the mass home brewing kit. It was pretty much up to the end user to finish the brewing process. Neat stuff.

The best hour I spent in ages! Truly she is one of the few most incredible women of the twentieth century.

I was disappointed when this video ended. I could have enjoyed five more hours of interview with this fine woman and showing us more about the home. She’s definitely leaving a legacy behind with her accomplishments.

Indeed a wonderful woman to come along to grasp the historical history of Frank Lloyd Wright. And to dedicate her life to future generations to realize that great Architecture is everything. That and kindness. God bless.

My great grand father worked for Gettlemen brewing company in Milwaukee he hauled beer by horse drawn wagon on Watertown Plank Road. and during Great Depression as a night watchman. Do you have any info on Gettlemen Brewing COMPANY

what a beautiful house !!

Pretty good

Truly Incredible Documentary. Thank you so much for sharing. I had seen a handful of pictures and reproductions of drawings for the Bogk House over the years but had no idea. So amazing How great Art can inculcate great taste in people who are open to receive the Inspiration. Mrs. Elsner likely would have found her calling similar whether her and her husband had purchased the house or not. So many happy coincidences that they did. And the fact that the collaboration that existed between Frank Lloyd Wright and the Bogks has continued through the stewardship of the property by the Elsners (even in spite of the unfortunate fact of Wright not having taken the time to meet the Elsners and posthumously). As well as to generally being the impetus for a veritable diaspora of good works. Truly an incredible woman. Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and all of us passionate about Frank Lloyd Wright and historic preservation (Our collective cultural heritage) in general are so much the better for her and her husband. thank you again.

An amazing piece of architectural history. Thank you for sharing the documentary, excellent work MCHS. All the best.

I found a Fox Head "400" Brewing bottle/can opener in my Mom's possessions. She taught in Wisconsin briefly around 1961-1962, possibly in Waukesha but certainly in the SE corner of the state.

This was really interesting with great narration and photos to match. Thanks for this.

Great seeing photos of Engine 6 firehouse being razed and rebuilt. Schowalter pharmacy fire was January 28, 1946.

On the lakes...ships are boats.

I was born in Milwaukee, but only lived there until I was 2 years old. I never knew Milwaukee had such glorious homes and buildings. It is an abomination that these beautiful homes were not kept up, valued and were allowed to go into disrepair due to neglect or greed. The buildings that were put up after these glorious homes were tragically destroyed were and still are ugly, cold and an abomination to the city's more beautiful past. All of those 'modern' reset replacement apartments and buildings look like they belong in the old East Germany occupied and ruled by the communists. I know, because I was there in the 1970's visiting relatives. The new buildings may be called progress by some, but it sure seem to me that modern styles are hidious and only lead to a decay of society. Very sad to see such beauty being torn down to be replaced with ugly.

Should not have listened to this after midnight. **shudder** Thank you, Anna, for a wonderful presentation. May all the lakes' lost souls find their eternal and peaceful rest. 😢

can you do a video on pioneer cemetery

I'm considering searching your records for information on my ancestors. I found an article that claims one of my ancestors learned the printing business while apprenticing under Benjamin Franklin at the age of 14. The source is a Milwaukee Sentinal article from 1954, I believe. Though there are suspected connections, I can't seem to confirm that the Neilsons are also connected to Franklin.

My 3rd Great Grandfather, Walter "Doc" Neilson, founded the Milwaukee Medical College. We come from a long line of prominent and influential people spread from Scotland to Quebec to Milwaukee.

12% "German" victims with "Bohemian" in a 10% mixed group of other nationalities. However, the wreck occurred in 1860 but a unified Germany wasn't created until after 1865, but as Messrs. Baehr and Harry so rightly highlighted, newspaper reports of the time were less about factual reporting when sensationalism would do. The Cathedral of St John the Evangelist in Milwaukee continues to celebrate an offertory mass on September 9th for the victims of the Lady Elgin, many of whom were parishioners. Blessed be their names & memories 🙏

*PromoSM* 😔

I remember as a boy shaking a dolphin's fin before dinner at the Natatorium.

Maria's Pizza on S. 51st and Forest Home Ave should be mentioned. Served some of the best thin crust pizza in Wisconsin history.

Do we know if Falk Brewing Company was using 2-Row or 6-Row Barley for their grist? I would assume 6-Row would be most likely as it should have been plentiful at that time. I’d be curious to know if they stuck with the Reinheitsgrebot or if they used any rice or corn.

3:37 documentary, then lost audio. ☹️ 6:08 live discussion

this series is so great! John is amazing do all the streets of milwaukee please lol

Thank you. Great history of a great city!

Next time, ensure your cursor is off the screen😊

The lady Elgin went down in 1860. And its sinking is credited with the fact that Milwaukee is considered a German town rather than an Irish one.

There HAS been the supposition that the Irish community DID fear the liberation of Black Slaves because they worried that those ex-slaves would come north and take away their jobs.
