A idyllic postcard view of the Ahnapee & Western depot.
Located at 341 North Third Avenue, Ahnapee & Western's 1914 depot is
still standing just north of downtown Sturgeon Bay. The building housed
the Cherryland Brewery and Pub from 1988-2000. This view looks to the west,
the loading platform is on the other side of the tracks. The freight house
was to the left, the shipyards directly beyond, and the team track and water
tower are to the right in the photo. This postcard was published by B.H. Dingman of Plymouth,
Wisconsin, and postmarked July 18, 1915.
