Suburban Neighbors

Suburban Neighbors | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
View along the 2700 block of Fish Hatchery Road, with billboard advertising residential lots in Tower Hill Park (a development by Llyman McKee and William McKee and their company called Macventures Inc. at the intersection of Lacy and Fish Hatchery Roads). Cows are grazing in the foreground. (The building with the flat roof has the address 2792 Fish Hatchery Road) Propelled by lower taxes and good roads, suburban development in Dane County and elsewhere in Wisconsin frequently led to conflicts in land use priorities.
