October 10, 1973 Appleton Post-Crescent
Last week's blog post about the joint city hall presaged the effort, once more, to try to consolidate the Twin Cities, this time in 1973. In addition to the consolidation vote, there was a referendum to develop Menasha's Main Street by a mall developer into something other than, what was termed in another article, "tavern-town." In 1973, this referendum passed. However, with the passage of time, the original developer dropped out, the effort lost steam and the radical redevelopment foreseen for the downtown area never did take hold.
