Summary

• Looking northeast from the Kenosha High School smoke stack, one can see the block which was soon to become the Civic Center. In the immediate foreground is the home of Charles J. Gronquist. On the opposite corner of the block and facing Market Street is the home of the late Lieutenant Governor Milton Pettit. To the left of the Pettit home is the home of Dr. Thomas Gillespie. Also can be seen the Court House, the Public School administration building, Allen Tannery, and in the distance across the harbor, Washington Island.
