History



Near the south end of what is now Allen Street, is a historical site called "The Crossing" where two railroads "Chicago and Fond Du Lac" (known today as "C.+NW") and "Racine and Mississippi" (known today as "SOO Line") intersect. In 1856 the two companies raced to lay tracks so the other would have the expense of crossing the already established tracks.
The Old Clinton Water Tower built in 1895 is another historical site close to The Crossing.
