This database was compiled by Ron Shutvet, Madison WI [1] Note: The background of this image shows the center portion of the State Office Building on Wilson Street under construction. Since this portion of the building was completed in 1938, it is believed that the original photograph was taken in early 1937. [2] Note: Due to the location of buildings and other skyline features in this image, this photograph was most likely taken from the Monona Bay area. |
