at the village center, i guess at the village center was a dam and i promised you we would not meet john gurda at a dam, so this better be more than a dam. >> it's a falls. it's not a dam. that's good. and we had to meet here, didn't
we? >> we could not have, john, because when you think about menomonee falls, this is where the menomonee falls. >> this is where menomonee >> this is where the river drops on its way down to lake michigan and this is where menomonee
falls came to life back in the early 1840's. there was a grist mill ahead of the rapids and saw mill farther downstream, so farmers blocked here and menomonee falls became the classic crossroads trading village. the cross-roads was main street
and appleton avenue, so the 1870's or so, you have 70 buildings here, and you could have seen just about all of them from right here at the dam. >> and that just kept growing? >> kept on growing. by 1880, two blacksmith shops, two butchers, two undertakes,
just for balance, but the next big jump, 1890, when the railroad came and in 1892, the village of menomonee falls incontours with roughly 500 people, mostly germans, immigrants and their kids, and was still a trading center, but also became an industrial
center. the big of the employer was a suinger beet up the stream, when the harvesters would come in, they would make 40 million pounds of sugar from beets in the peak year in 1905. >> then what happened? >> milwaukee got closer as the
roads got better, so by 1930 or so, menomonee falls is fast becoming kind of a bedroom suburb for people who live here and work in milwaukee and that mattern accelerated after world war ii and the really big year here was 1958, when the village of menomonee falls, all
that was left of the old town of menominee, and overnight, grew from two square miles to 32 and from 4500 people to 4,000 and kept on growing. >> how big is it? >> about 36,000 people. and -- >> this would be the 21st
21st largest city in the state if it were a city, but they chose to keep the historic >> let's talk boundaries. >> county line on the north, town line on the west, 124th 124th on the east and on the south, hampton road, so it's basically the old town of
menominee and the northeastern portion of waukesha county. >> spread out. >> spread out and the menominee still falls. >> i love it. and it's the falls, not a dam. look, fresh concrete. when i was nine, guess what i
