Milwaukee: Juneau Town (East Town) and Lake Park
View through CrossRef
This chapter explores several iconic architectural landmarks in Milwaukee, beginning with the US Bank Center at 777 E. Wisconsin Avenue. Completed in 1973 by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill with Fitzhugh Scott Architects and engineered by Fazlur Khan, this forty-two-story skyscraper stands as Milwaukee's tallest building. The chapter mentions the 1914 Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Building at 720 E. Wisconsin Avenue, designed by Marshall & Fox, that showcases neoclassical elegance with Woodbury Granite, Carrara Marble, bronze, and terra-cotta features. The chapter also includes the 2017 Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons by Pickard Chilton, which introduces modernity with Buddusò Granite, Yule Marble, Botticino Limestone, and Eramosa Dolostone. Each building not only embodies architectural excellence but also serves as a geological testament to Milwaukee's rich urban landscape.
