Appropriate that I am posting this on the day after the 150th anniversary of the Great Peshtigo Fire, somewhat overshadowed in history by another fire, in a city through which Highway 41 also passes, i.e., Chicago. (I never even noted that connection until this very moment.) So this posting in the end-to-end Streetview trek visits downtown Peshtigo.
Just above Peshtigo Dam; Business Highway 41 actually crosses over this bridge.
Now, the Peshtigo Historical Society and Fire Museum. If you'll remember, on the previous leg of the trek,
I mentioned the Great Peshtigo Fire; it's linked above.
This multi-street intersection on the west "bank" of the Peshtigo River is as close to a downtown as I could find. The view looks at the Peshtigo Cafe, probably a nice place to eat.

Approaching Marinette, with a train by the highway.
Just ahead, on the other side of the river from Marinette, is Menominee -- and Michigan.
