Wisconsin Highway 167

State Trunk Highway 167 (often called Highway 167, STH 167 or WIS 167) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Wisconsin. It runs in eastwest in southeast Wisconsin from Hartford to Mequon passing through southern Washington and Ozaukee Counties.

Route description

Highway 167 begins at WIS 83 south of Hartford; west of WIS 83, the road is Washington CTH O. From WIS 83, WIS 167 heads east along Holy Hill Road, intersecting CTH K and CC. In Hubertus, the Catholic shrine of Holy Hill National Shrine of Mary, Help of Christians, is located on WIS 167. WIS 167 then intersects WIS 164. The route then has an interchange with the US 41/45 freeway in Richfield. At this interchange, labeled as Exit 54, eastbound WIS 167 merges onto the southbound freeway. WIS 167 splits off from the U.S. routes at the next interchange, Exit 57.

Now in Germantown, Highway 167 turns northeast along Lannon Road after leaving the freeway. The highway continues northeast until it intersects Mequon Road, which it follows east through the remainder of its route. WIS 167 has a brief concurrency with WIS 145 in Germantown. The road then crosses into Ozaukee County and the city of Mequon. In Mequon, WIS 167 junctions with WIS 181, which follows Wauwatosa Road. WIS 167 then begins its concurrency with WIS 57, which will last through the end of the route. At Port Washington Road, WIS 57/167 intersect CTH W. A short distance later lies the end of Highway 167 at its interchange with I-43. WIS 57 continues northward along the Interstate.

Wisconsin

Wisconsin (i/wɪsˈkɒ̃nsɪn/) is a U.S. state located in the north-central United States, in the Midwest and Great Lakes regions. It is bordered by Minnesota to the west, Iowa to the southwest, Illinois to the south, Lake Michigan to the east, Michigan to the northeast, and Lake Superior to the north. Wisconsin is the 23rd largest state by total area and the 20th most populous. The state capital is Madison, and its largest city is Milwaukee, which is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan. The state is divided into 72 counties.

Wisconsin's geography is diverse, with the Northern Highland and Western Upland along with a part of the Central Plain occupying the western part of the state and lowlands stretching to the shore of Lake Michigan. Wisconsin is second to Michigan in the length of its Great Lakes coastline.

Wisconsin is known as "America's Dairyland" because it is one of the nation's leading dairy producers, particularly famous for cheese. Manufacturing, especially paper products, information technology (IT), and tourism are also major contributors to the state's economy.

Wisconsin wine

Wisconsin wine refers to wine made from grapes grown in the U.S. state of Wisconsin. Wisconsin is part of the largest American Viticultural Area (AVA), the Upper Mississippi Valley AVA, which includes southwest Wisconsin, southeast Minnesota, northeast Iowa, and northwest Illinois. The state also has two smaller designated American Viticultural Areas, the Lake Wisconsin AVA and the Wisconsin Ledge AVA.

The Wisconsin Winery Association is a statewide organization that promotes wine making in the state.

History

The first wine grapes were planted in Wisconsin by Agoston Haraszthy in the mid-19th century. Before he migrated to California and helped to found the wine industry there, he established a vineyard, winery and wine cellars overlooking the Wisconsin River at what is today the Wollersheim Winery near Prairie du Sac. Although Haraszthy found the climate of Wisconsin difficult for wine grape production, later German settlers produced wine using both European and native American grape varieties.

Wisconsin (statue)

The Wisconsin is a statue on top of the Wisconsin Capitol Building created by Daniel Chester French.

History

The Wisconsin statue on the dome was sculpted during 1913-1914 by Daniel Chester French of New York.

The commission to create the statue of Wisconsin on the top of the dome was originally promised to Helen Farnsworth Mears, originally of Wisconsin. When Daniel Chester French agreed to produce the finial figure, the commission was switched to him.

Description

This work, often referred to as the "Golden Lady", consists of an allegorical figure reminiscent of Athena, dressed in Greek garb, her right arm outstretched to symbolize the state motto, "Forward", and wearing a helmet topped by a badger, the Wisconsin state totem.

The figure's left hand holds a globe with an eagle perched on top. Across the eagle's chest is a large W, for Wisconsin, a detail hard to discern.

Wisconsin is 15 ft 5 in (4.70 m) tall and weighs 3 short tons (2.7 t).

The lady is also in a mural in the House of Representatives.
