People's Pilot, Volume 5, Number 19, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 31 October 1895 — The Irquois Sea Wall. [ARTICLE]

The Irquois Sea Wall.

Isaac Glazebrook has constructed a “sea wall” along the rear end of his lot on Front street that is two feet above the high water mark of the Iroquois, and filled in the lot with dirt until it is one of the nicest on the street. Saylor & Collins will continue the wall along the river front the entire length of the mill property. It is a substantial improvement that should be imitated all along the river on both sides.
