Early history
Main Street began as "Shanty Row", consisting of five tamarack shanties built in 1850. Over the next 10 years, the shanties were either destroyed or removed, and Main Street took their place. The Chicago & North Western Railway (C&NW) arrived in 1872, bringing with it many businesses and industries. One of the most important was the Reedsburg Woolen Mill, which was built in 1882 along the Baraboo River.
