In this 1893 birdseye, we now have two bridges across the Fox River, Walnut at the top and Main at the bottom. The railroads have arrived to both Green Bay (on the left) and Fort Howard (on the right). The river has become less important for transportation. Notice less docking facilities along this area. |
