Walter G. Berg gave a detailed description of the building in Buildings and Structures of American Railroads (1893).The station faced the Fourth Ward Park (since renamed Zeidler Park), which afforded both a vantage point for viewing the station and a bucolic respite from the mechanized industrial culture of the railroad. The station served passengers from its opening in 1886 until it was replaced by the Milwaukee Intermodal Station on August 4, 1965. The station was damaged by fire a week after closing and razed the following year."@en }
