I was Born in Eau Claire 1962. Growing up as a child I was in sections of the logging shut and growing up explored many places that had footings from some of the old building in this program. Some of my first memories come from living on the corner of Wisconsin St. and Forest St... Pheonix Steel was still there. The city has changed but in the back of my mind I can still see that Neighborhood and the people. I remember the World War 1 Veterans that Lived in the Gordon Hotel, The Cab Stand, M&H, Max Phillips and sons OOH and the Old Madison St. Bridge with its Light Post's. It was a great place to grow up.. I started at Pheonix Steel in 1986 near the air port where they moved after the Big Flood of 1967. This Town Did Grow into a City
My grandmother was from Fairchild which is small town and she spoke of Eau Claire the nearest bigger town. She moved to Chicago on her own. R.I.P. Audrey
The tribes themselves prefer "American Indian" over "Native American." Tragic that much of downtown has been demolished. That crappy Confluence construction tore out the heart of authentic downtown.
