NOTES
Additional Information:Rewald Electric Company, founded by A. J. Rewald in 1925, constructed a building on Milwaukee Avenue to house their offices and shop in 1951 at 841 Milwaukee Avenue, which at that time was located in the Town of Burlington. The property was annexed into the City of Burlington in 1953. The company was purchased by William Ebbers in 1988 and relocated to Teut Road in 2007. In 2007, a tattoo parlor opened in the former Rewald Electric building, which today houses Cool Nails Professional Nail Care.
