Wauwatosa and its surrounding western Milwaukee suburbs are captured here at a point of high-density residential and institutional maturity. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Menomonee River and Underwood Creek, which historically dictated the growth of early villages like Elm Grove and Butler. Significant acreage is dedicated to institutional history and memory, including the expansive Wisconsin Memorial Park Cem and the Milwaukee County Asylum Cem.
