Milwaukee Veterans Home
| Text on front reads: "Milwaukee Ave. Wisconsin Vet. Home. Waupaca, Wis." Two women walk on a sidewalk along a snow-covered, unpaved street. On each side are cottages surrounded by trees, built for injured Civil War Veterans and their wives. The facility began operations in 1888. Today the Veterans Cottages Historic District is listed on the National and State Register of Historic Places. |
