Ruplin Bakery Landmark Replaced by Garage and Homes
Longtime La Crosse landmark the Ruplin Baking Co and adjacent Ruplin homes at 412 Fourth Street were torn or altered to clear space for new businesses. Jacob Ruplin, Swiss born pioneer, started the bakery in 1895, distributing by wagon and later by train. The family sold the property in 1950 after the business closed in the late 1940s. The article notes the block's evolution and the move of Clark-Bracken Electric and Appliance businesses.
