The Village of North Milwaukee was created in 1897 when the Town of Milwaukee was
divided into three parts, the Town of Granville in the northwest, the Town of
Wauwatosa in the west, and the Village of North Milwaukee in the northeast. By 1900,
the Village of North Milwaukee was all that remained of the Town of Milwaukee. In
1918 the Village of North Milwaukee became the City of North Milwaukee. The City of
North Milwaukee was then annexed into the City of Milwaukee in 1929.
