Summary
On the hilly shore of Lake Superior overlooking the Apostle Islands, this 60-block district encompasses most of the original plat of old Bayfield. Primarily residential, the district retains the flavor of the 1883-1924 period, representing cultural patterns of ordinary people living in a northern Wisconsin lumbering-fishing village.
