Milwaukee City Hall (1895) by yooperprof
A classic example of late 19th century civic pride. For many years, this 300-foot tower was the tallest structure in the city. Architects H.C. Koch & Co. were inspired by Flemish guild halls in their design.Because the city hall rests on marshy ground close to the Milwaukee River, the structure rests upon 25,000 wooden support piles!
