City of Rhinelander Waterfront Redevelopment Plan – 2009

The waterfront has always played a significant role in the City of Rhinelander. In the 1870’s, explorers traveled up the Wisconsin River to the confluence of the Wisconsin and Pelican Rivers in search of timber, and found an ideal location for what would eventually become the City of Rhinelander.
