The changing face of Watertown, Wisconsin, is captured in this extraordinary collection of photographs from years gone by coupled with their present-day counterparts. Then & Now: Watertown, Wisconsin, allows us to glimpse the progression and evolution of this Midwestern town. Small and diverse industries have always been the norm for Watertown.

Of course, the contrasts with the Watertown residents of today are immediately apparent, but the similarities can be discovered as well.
