Daniel Wells Jr. was a businessman, judge and U.S. Congressman. When
he died a year after the Wells Building was built, he was believed
to be the wealthiest man in Wisconsin. The first two floors are
primarily copper and glass, while upper floors are terra cotta
and brick. The top four floors were stripped of much of their
ornamentation due to structural problems.
Now look at the
detail of the entrance.
