Marble Hall A four story brick building which was next door to the Newhall House when it burned down in 1883. Marble Hall survived the fire and lasted for a good many years afterwards as a watering hole and meeting place for politicians and well known Milwaukeeans. The saloon which made the building famous was started in 1867 by Fred Snyder.
