Then and Now, Milwaukee-Pulaski

Pulaski Road was originally called Crawford Avenue. In 1941 the intersection with Milwaukee Avenue featured two buildings combining the street names MILwaukee and CrawFORD. The Milford Recreation Building, featuring ground-floor stores and second-floor bowling alleys, is seen on the left side of the 1941 photo. Across Pulaski, on the same side of Milwaukee, is the Milford Theater Building.

In our time both Milford buildings are gone. Neither of the strip malls that replaced them is named Milski.
