Howard is a village in Brown and Outagamie counties in the U.S. state of Wisconsin.

It is bordered to the east by Green Bay, a sub-basin of Lake Michigan.

The Town of Howard was established in 1835 and slowly developed along Duck Creek as a center for mail delivery, farming, quarrying and lumbering.

It was named for Brigadier General Benjamin Howard, an officer in the War of 1812.

[5] By 1856, a school was operating and the Town of Howard became known for its Duck Creek stone quarries; of which there were four.

Residential, commercial and industrial growth has continued steadily since that time, creating a suburban community on Green Bay's northwest side.

Today the only railroads that reach Green Bay are the Escanaba & Lake Superior (E&LS) and the Canadian National (CN).

The Fox River Valley (FRVR) Railroad yard, formerly the Green Bay & Western (GB&W), has been turned into a park and apartments.

The Milwaukee Road (MILW) yard has had its tracks removed, but is still owned by Canadian National.

The Duck Creek Quarry Park is open to the public all year round.

Nouryon Sports Complex contains four softball diamonds, ten soccer fields and an 18-hole disc golf course.

The park also contains a lighted sledding hill, a fully fenced baseball diamond, an open-air shelter with grill, a full-size basketball court, and restrooms.

The fire department then began running its own Paramedic Ambulance.

Interstate 43, which provides direct access to Milwaukee and Chicago, terminates in Howard.
