Waukesha Subdivision The Lake Front Depot was a train station in Milwaukee, Wisconsin built in 1889–1890 by the Chicago and North Western Railway (C&NW).

It was located near the shore of Lake Michigan at the end of East Wisconsin Avenue, by today's Milwaukee County War Memorial.

The structure was built with stone in the Romanesque style, and had a tall clock tower which reached 234 feet (71 m) high.

In the early days of the Twin Cities 400, the steam locomotives which pulled the train were exchanged at the Milwaukee station.

The engines ran at such high speeds on the route from Chicago to Minneapolis–Saint Paul that some components in the drivetrain couldn't withstand the 410-mile (660 km) trip.
