  • Pfister & Vogel (P&V) was an American tannery business in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Frederick Vogel emigrated from Wurtemberg, Germany to Milwaukee. In 1848, he founded a tannery on Milwaukee's Menominee River. Having also emigrated from Wurtemberg in 1845, Vogel's cousin Guido Pfister opened a shoe store on nearby West Water Street.

Vogel was vice-president of the company until his death. The company changed hands several times. Its last owners, U.S. Leather Company, shut it down in 2000. The original Pfister & Vogel campus on Water Street in Downtown Milwaukee was demolished and the site cleaned and prepared for development in 2007. Between 2008 and 2017, Milwaukee based developer Mandel Group constructed a four phase mixed-used development on the grounds. The North End consists of six apartment buildings, a Fresh Thyme grocery store and other retail tenants. The complex contains 673 apartments. (en)
