Around the Corner with John McGivern

Waukesha

Season 2 Episode 7 | 29m 15s

We knew about the Les Paul connection, but there are so many gems in Waukesha that were a joy to discover. This was our first (and maybe only) “five points” community. A magic and joke shop, great chocolate, sewing supplies, beads, great food, old-fashioned ice cream and tattoos, all within about a five minute walk.
