- Description
This commercial vernacular structure was built in 1914 for Valecia Condensed Milk Company. Over the years the building was home to a number of dairy processing facilities. At the time of the survey, the building housed Wisconsin Dairies. Wisconsin Dairies is the reason Reedsburg is called the Butter Capital of America.
The Reedsburg Historic Survey was conducted from October 1983 through April 1984 by the City of Reedsburg and community volunteers. The project was funded, in part, by a National Park Service and U. S. Department of the Interior grant, administered by the Historic Preservation Division of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. The surveys and accompanying photographs, housed at the Reedsburg Public Library, were compiled to determine National Register of Historic Places eligibility.
