1905 - 1951

The Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company opened its terminal here in 1905. The first car entered this building January 1, 1905.

The first floor was the terminal area, with two waiting rooms and thirteen car tracks; it was then the largest terminal of its kind in the United States.

At one time the system extended west to Watertown, north to Sheboygan, south to Kenosha, and southwest to Burlington and East Troy. The final line was abandoned June 30, 1951.
