During one of Menasha's many periods of renovation and innovation comes this idea: what if we created more parking for the downtown businesses by eliminating buildings on Broad Street?  This was the era of the "New Menasha Committee" designed to get things rolling again for the downtown.  Despite the "sprucing up" of the rear entrances, it was what it was...an area not ready for primetime, so to speak.  Not necessarily the greatest view from Broad Street, but just the way it was.
