The city is mostly very beautifully laid out, containing many
fine streets and avenues, affording splendid drives; and along
these streets are as fine a lot of buildings, both public and
private, as can be found in any town in the State of equal pretensions.
The church and school buildings are already mentioned as being
of the best,--a credit to the city and a monument to the memory
of the builders. The business houses mostly are good, build of
the celebrated Milwaukee brick. Carpenter & Sons' block,
the Goodwin Hotel, and Opera House are among the most costly.
The Goodwin House, kept by that popular landlord Wash. Salisbury,
is one of the finest hotels in the country. |
