Survey of Fox River Valley Industrial Buildings

Survey of Fox River Valley Industrial Buildings | Wisconsin Historical Society

The State Historic Preservation Office funded this 2019 survey conducted by Legacy Architecture to document historic industrial buildings in the Fox River Valley communities of Green Bay, Kaukauna, Appleton, Menasha, Neenah, Oshkosh, and Fond du Lac. The purpose was to identify historic places that are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places and therefore eligible for federal and state historic preservation tax credits. 

The availability of these financial incentives makes these resources, complexes, and historic districts attractive for reinvestment and rehabilitation for new uses. The survey identified 290 resources of architectural and historical interest, including 20 individual resources, six complexes, and one historic district that are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, as well as one proposed expansion of an existing National Register-listed historic district.

This survey was financed entirely with private funds raised and administered by
the Wisconsin Historical Society. The contents and opinions contained in this report do not
necessarily reflect the views or policies of the Wisconsin Historical Society, nor does the
mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation by
the Wisconsin Historical Society.
