The 
​Depot & Brookfield Junction

  • Here Harry Cox built and opened in addition to his shop, a hotel
  • Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroads depended very largely on the mill at the depot for lumber for building cars, bridges, and railroads
  • The depot served as a commercial and social center for the surrounding farms.
  • This area slowly formed into the area that is now including restaurants (Vino Cappuccino), a dance/theater company, small shops, and more
    • It is now known as the Village of Brookfield
