Additional Comments	Dr. Robert E. Wittig opened a dental office on Silver Spring Drive in 1949. The building, constructed by Siderits Construction Company for $30,000, was designed by architect Urban F. Peacock to include three medical offices, one of which he would occupy. Dr. Wittig initially hoped to attract a pediatrician and an obstetrician to share the facility. He moved his 14-year old practice from the Goldsmith Building in downtown Milwaukee to avoid downtown traffic and locate closer to many of his patients living in the North Shore.
