View From My Room Originally uploaded by compujeramey OnMilwaukee.com’s Bobby Tanzilo took a peak at the story behind the naming of Broadway. The street, which a long long time ago used to be known as Main Street, technically has no suffix. Broadway, one of downtown Milwaukee’s main arteries, is not legally followed by Street, Avenue, or Boulevard, it is simply Broadway. Someone in the city marketing department could spend an entire day trying to correct errors on the web where it’s incorrectly listed, but is it worth it? Maybe, maybe not. The fact that the name Broadway stands alone is something that once you know, you don’t forget, and that you aren’t any better or worse off for actually knowing. Consider this my public service announcement of the month, use your new knowledge to impress your friends or seduce your spouse.
