As the 150th anniversary of the City of Manitowoc approaches, Mayor Justin Nickels is asking for the public to help name the city’s alleyways. There are 30 alleys throughout the city, but since there aren’t any addresses on the alleys, naming them will not affect people’s mailing address. In a news release, Mayor Nickels stated “I would like to name the alleys after historical (or current) figures or prominent businesses throughout our city’s 150 years of existence” To submit an idea, citizens are asked to email the mayor directly at jnickels@manitowoc.org. The chosen names will be announced on the official anniversary of the city, which is March 12th, 2020.
