Title	Remember When...visitors stayed at the Juneau Hotel?
Description	When the Chicago and North Western Railway Depot stood on Wisconsin St. overlooking the lake, the nearby Juneau Hotel at 229 Wisconsin welcomed visitors to Milwaukee. The structure was built at the turn of the century as an apartment house, but in 1910, after the area lost its residential character, Eugene Trimberger bought the building and turned it into a hotel. Trimberger also established a restaurant at the site in 1919; it was called Eugene's, and became known for its seafood. This photo shows the hotel in the early 1920s. In 1948 Trimberger sold his interests, and the hotel was remodeled. In 1964 it was razed to make room for a new building that is part of Juneau Square. Photograph and information from the Milwaukee Public Library local history collection.
