Park East Freeway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Park East Freeway was a freeway planned and partially built in Milwaukee. It was planned to be part of a larger freeway named the Park Freeway.
The original plan for the freeway called for it to run from I-43 to near Prospect Avenue and Ogden Avenue. From that point, it would turn southward and be named the Lake Freeway. This freeway was intended to be the northern loop of the proposed downtown loop freeway.
The freeway was only built as far east as Milwaukee Street. Begininning in 2002, the freeway was demolished and replaced with an at-grade McKinley Boulevard.
